“After a Stinging 5-1 Defeat, Can Northern Ireland Rise from the Ashes of Their Isak Nightmare?”
Michael O’Neill says Northern Ireland must treat their 5-1 demolition by Sweden as a learning experience, warning things will get tougher still in World Cup qualifying.
Northern Ireland were blown away in Tuesday’s friendly in Stockholm, with Newcastle United’s Alexander Isak and Nottingham Forest’s Anthony Elanga among the goals.
Emil Holm, Benjamin Nygren and Ken Sema were also on target for Sweden, who have scored five or more goals in back-to-back home internationals for the first time since 1957, having beaten Azerbaijan 6-0 last time out on home soil.
