News summary

Northern Ireland secured an emphatic 5-0 victory over Bulgaria in the UEFA Nations League, propelled by Isaac Price's hat-trick, marking the team's first home hat-trick since 2006. After struggling to score in recent matches, Northern Ireland dominated with goals from Price, an own goal by Bulgaria's Dimitar Mitov, and a late goal from Josh Magennis, which delighted the home fans at Windsor Park. This win positions Northern Ireland atop League C Group 3, just one point ahead of Belarus and Luxembourg, as they aim for promotion and improved World Cup qualifying prospects. Notably, Price's performance came after a disappointing earlier match against Bulgaria, highlighting the team's desire for redemption. Michael O'Neill's youthful squad, with an average age of just over 22, showcased significant potential, as fans celebrated a rare comprehensive home win. The result not only boosts morale but also enhances Northern Ireland's chances in their upcoming matches.
