Conor Washington on Scoring his first Goal!

Northern Ireland striker Conor Washington opened his International account by netting the winner in a 1-0 win against Slovenia.

It was the striker's second start for Michael O'Neill's side and in his first appearance at the National Football Stadium at Windsor Park, Washington made it a night to remember.

He said: "It was incredible obviously, a great experience and to get the win makes it even sweeter.

"As a striker you see the goal and your eyes light up and you just want to be as cool as possible. I shifted the ball past the defender, saw a gap open up at the near post and managed to put it in."
