Evans, Tielemans & Thomas In International Action
- Jonny Evans featured in Northern Ireland's 0-0 draw with the Netherlands in UEFA European Championships qualifying
- Northern Ireland are currently third in Group C, three points behind Holland, who have a strong goal advantage
- Youri Tielemans was a second-half substitute as Belgium beat Russia 4-1 to seal top spot in Group I
- Young left-back Luke Thomas also started a 5-0 win for England's Under-19s against North Macedonia
Evans, a Premier League ever-present for the Foxes so far in the 2019/20 season, played a hand in Northern Ireland's clean sheet during a 0-0 draw with the Netherlands at Windsor Park.
Northern Ireland, guaranteed a place in the UEFA European Championships qualifying play-offs, are three points behind Holland in Group C, while Germany are another two ahead.
The chance to seal a win which would have kept their automatic hopes alive saw Steven Davis blast a first-half penalty over the bar, although the visitors dominated for large spells in Belfast.
However, the second-placed Dutch have a vastly superior goal difference of +12, compared to Northern Ireland's +1, with Michael O'Neill's men set to face leaders Germany away on Tuesday (7:45pm kick-off).
Elsewhere, Tielemans, who has started every City fixture this season, was brought on in the 52nd minute as Belgium beat Russia 4-1 in Saint Petersburg, a ninth consecutive win in qualifying.
Thorgan Hazard got the Red Devils off to a flier at Gazprom Arena before brother Eden Hazard added a brace before half-time, while Tielemans was introduced with 38 minutes still to play.
Inter Milan striker Romelu Lukaku, meanwhile, added a fourth for the side ranked first in the FIFA World Rankings, before Georgi Dzhikiya narrowed the arrears late on for Russia.
It means Belgium, who have a 100 per cent record, secure top spot in Group I with 27 points from nine games, eight more than Russia in second and 15 above third-place Scotland.
Dennis Praet, on the other hand, was unused on the bench. On Tuesday, the 2018 World Cup third-place play-off winners host Cyprus at King Baudouin Stadium in Brussels (7:45pm kick-off).
Earlier, Academy graduate Luke Thomas, an enterprising left-back who plays for the Club's Development Squad, also starred for England's Under-19s in a 5-0 win over North Macedonia.
Goals from Tommy Doyle, Anthony Gordon and Bukayo Saka, including a brace from James Garner, sent the Young Lions top of Group 11 in U19 European Championships qualifying.
On Tuesday afternoon, they face Bosnia & Herzegovina Under-19s, who have four points from two games, at Gjorche Petrov Stadium in their third qualifier (12pm kick-off).
