Ian Baraclough recorded his first win as Northern Ireland manager inside 90 minutes as they eased to a 3-0 friendly win over Malta in Austria. After Jordan Jones capitalised on a defensive mistake just two minutes in, quickfire second-half goals from Gavin Whyte and Ali McCann effectively ended the game as a contest. Northern Ireland:Peacock-Farrell, McNair, Cathcart, Brown, McGinn, McCann, Dallas, Thompson, Whyte, Jones, Magennis. As Northern Ireland passed up chances, Malta steadily grew into the game, threatening as Luke Montebello hit the side netting before Shaun Dimech poked wide. Shaw could only clear Jones' cross as far as the Leeds man, who quickly fed Whyte to fire home.
