PARIS (AP) With Northern Ireland on the verge of the knockout stages of the European Championship, coach Michael O'Neill is counting on his side to finish the job against Germany.
Even a draw on Tuesday could be enough for Northern Ireland to advance as one of the four best third-place sides, with three points secured from a 2-0 victory over Ukraine.
''We knew this would be the most difficult game in the group. But we wanted to make sure we had something to play for coming into this game, and we certainly have that prize to play for,'' O'Neill said on Monday as he prepared for the sides' final match in Group C.
