Worthington awaits Evans news

Northern Ireland manager Nigel Worthington is waiting for an update on Jonny Evans' fitness on Thursday after the player finally joined up with the squad.

The promising Manchester United defender did not fly out with the rest of the squad to Slovenia as he was at home with a virus, but he has now arrived in Maribor ahead of the squad's World Cup qualifier against Slovenia on Saturday.

The 20-year-old will miss training on Thursday and Worthington will be updated on whether Evans can play.
