As the 2026 World Cup begins Northern Ireland great @NormanWhiteside remains the youngest player ever to play in the finals.
He's held the record since 1982 when he took over from Pele!
That's now 12 tournaments with potentially more to come. Some going 👏👏👏

There's another World Cup starting today, in darts, and Northern Ireland are the holders!
It was one of the best sporting moments of 2025 when Josh Rock and Daryl Gurney won the tournament last year, beating Wales in an epic final.
All the best to them in the 2026 event.

"The team’s in a fantastic position. We’re thriving. For me the only way I get to stay in the squad is if I continue to perform at club level. I’m trying to find a new job & hopefully I’m at a level where my performance is carrying me through to still be in the squad." 👇

Well played Arsenal teenager Ceadach O'Neill.
On Monday night the 18-year-old was playing the superstars of France in Lille and come Tuesday morning he was sitting an A-Level exam in London.
All this after making his Northern Ireland debut last week! 👏
