Healy was at Windsor Park on Monday evening to watch Northern Ireland land a last-gasp leveller to claim a 1-1 draw against Hungary.

The Killyleagh man, who boasts Leeds United and Rangers among his former clubs, is the all-time leading scorer for Northern Ireland with 36 goals and he won 95 international caps.
