Notes:
  • Oliver Norwood again opted out of the squad citing "personal reasons"
  • UEFA credited NI's first goal to Conor Washington despite his shot taking a clear deflection off Josh Magennis
  • Conor Washington and Conor McLaughlin's clubs had already announced they would be released ahead of the summer transfer window and therefore show as 'unattached' in some sources. Steven Davis had already agreed to make his loan move to Rangers permanent
