Lafferty: No fear for Northern Ireland in last 16

After limiting Germany to a one-goal victory, the Norwich City attacker feels his country will continue to frustrate opponents at the summer's European Championship

Kyle Lafferty believes no team will relish facing Northern Ireland after Michael O'Neill's team secured an extension to their Euro 2016 adventure.

A combination of stout defending and heroics from inspired goalkeeper Michael McGovern limited Germany to a 1-0 win in Paris on Tuesday.

Turkey's subsequent 2-0 win over Czech Republic ensured Northern Ireland's haul of three points and a neutral goal difference in Group C would be enough to establish them as one of the four best third-place teams in the round-robin phase.
