The Northern Ireland women footballers face the Faroe Islands at Seaview tonight (7pm, behind closed doors).
Victory in the Euro qualifier would secure a play-off place for the 2022 finals in England.
Kenny Shiels' side are aiming for the country's first major tournament.
Defender Julie Nelson has more than 100 caps, but this is new ground, even for her:

The men will take centre stage at Seaview on Wednesday night but the fun games have already started on social media.
