"I've been focussed on these two games. That's something for the powers above me to decide what's happening for the next camp. My full focus has been on these two games. What happens next happens next. I thoroughly enjoyed this camp, but, as I say it's up to the powers that be to see what happens after this."
"They obviously scored from a mistake from us, which happens, it's fine and I thought that killed the momentum a little bit and we lost a little bit of enthusiasm and there was nothing really in it in the first half. But second half, I thought we were more of a Northern Ireland performance in terms of enthusiasm and intent, we had them pinned in for large spells of the second half."
Kris Lindsay, interim manager of Northern Ireland women's football team, stated that the decision regarding his permanent appointment rests with Irish FA leadership. After presiding over defeats to Switzerland (2-0) and Turkey (1-0) in World Cup qualifiers, Lindsay maintained focus on the two matches rather than discussing his future role. Despite public backing from players including Laura Rafferty, Nadene Caldwell, and Jackie Burns, Lindsay deflected speculation about continuing as permanent boss. He acknowledged a goalkeeper error led to Turkey's goal but praised the team's second-half performance and defensive discipline. Lindsay expressed confidence in the squad's potential for upcoming April fixtures against Malta.
