Northern Ireland striker Kyle Lafferty says that he expects to remain on the substitutes' bench for his side's Euro 2016 fixture with Germany.

Northern Ireland striker Kyle Lafferty has acknowledged that Michael O'Neill is likely to make no changes for his side's final group fixture against Germany.

Lafferty was one of five players to drop out of the side for Northern Ireland's game with Ukraine on Thursday night, and after the Green Army registered a 2-0 win to keep their last-16 hopes alive, the Norwich City forward has said that he expects to remain on the bench.

The 28-year-old is quoted by RTE as saying: "I don't think any of the lads who started deserve to be dropped.

"I think the performance that they put in, they probably sweated blood out there and they deserve another chance."

Northern Ireland are likely to reach the knockout stages in France if they can earn a point against the world champions.
