Northern Ireland Can Go The 'Whole Way' - Lafferty
Kyle Lafferty believes Northern Ireland can "go the whole way" at the Euro 2016.
The team is set to play against Wales on Saturday, 25 June, after winning a place in the last 16.
Striker Lafferty admitted it will be a "tough game", however he said: "With our heart and determination we honestly believe we can go on and beat anyone.
"It might take some luck along the way but every team in the world is due their luck at sometime and I believe if we get a little bit of luck we'll upset a few teams.
"It'll be interesting to see who wants it the most on Saturday. The way we have played in recent games will make it interesting and I believe we will come out on top."
Goalkeeper Michael McGovern said it would be an "amazing achievement" to beat Wales.
He said: We have had a taste of success against Ukraine and we want that again on Saturday.
"If we could get to the quarter finals of a European Championship, it would be an unbelievable achievement."
