Northern Ireland boss Kenny Shiels insisted it would be a “massive failure” if England did not win Euro 2022 after seeing his side brushed aside by the host nation.

The Lionesses cruised to a 5-0 victory over Shiels’ team at St Mary’s Stadium on Friday night to finish top of Group A with a 100 per cent record and cement their place among the tournament favourites.

Having felt the full force of what England have to offer, the Northern Ireland manager was unequivocal over their prospects.

Shiels said: “We didn’t play out as much as we would have normally because they’re too good for us, and it would be a massive failure if they didn’t win this tournament.
