Tonight's Milk Cup match between Northern Ireland U19 and Brazil U19 was beamed out live via a BBC webcast.
Follow up:
Northern Ireland took the lead through Kyle McVey on 32 minutes. Of course I missed it as I'd just disappeared into the kitchen to get something to eat, but I did get back in time to hear some of the crowd singing "We're Not Brazil We're Northern Ireland"!! 
Shortly after Northern Ireland scored it looked bleak. Brazil had a man sent off and it looked like the jinx was back, but it wasn't to be...
Paul McCrink scored for Northern Ireland to put them 2-0 up with surely only a couple of minutes left. Spectacular goal too! The ball came from Johnny Steele just inside the Brazil half on the far side of the pitch and McVey stretched his leg out to force it home.
Wait til ye hear Brazil fans at the next world cup sing "We're not Norn Iron We're Brazil!!"
Incidentally, anyone who wants the "We're Not Brazil We're Northern Ireland" ringtone, head to Unlockia.net for free polyphonic ringtones.
