The Liverpool youngster scored both goals against Andorra.
Bradley registered his first senior brace with goals in the 16th and 23rd minutes, but Michael O’Neill’s men could not add to that lead despite clear chances for Callum Marshall and Jamal Lewis before half-time.
Advertisement O’Neill made five changes to the side beaten in Mallorca with Corry Evans, Brodie Spencer, Ciaron Brown, Paul Smyth and Marshall coming in, but it remained a strong line-up with Bradley retained and Daniel Ballard taking over as captain. It was the fifth consecutive match in which Northern Ireland had opened the scoring – a run they had not achieved since 2017 – and seven minutes later the handful of Northern Ireland fans making themselves heard in an otherwise deserted Estadio Nueva Condomina were celebrating again.
Marshall should have recorded his first international goal six minutes before the break. Spencer’s fine ball played in Jamie Reid down the right and his early cross found Marshall at the far post but the West Ham teenager could not get his finish right as it bobbled behind.
