Northern Ireland secured a dramatic late victory over Georgia in the Nations League, with Shea Charles scoring a winning goal in the 99th minute, according to BBC Sport.
The goal came deep into stoppage time, capping an eventful finish to the fixture and handing Northern Ireland the win in a match that had appeared headed for a different result before the late intervention.
A crucial late moment
Goals scored so far into added time are rare and often decisive, and Charles's strike ensured Northern Ireland closed out the contest with all three points rather than settling for a draw.
The result adds to Northern Ireland's Nations League campaign, with the team's continued performances in the competition shaping their position in the group ahead of upcoming fixtures.
Further details on the broader context of the match, including the scoreline before the late goal, were not included in the available report.
