QPR defender Mark Graham (21) has been called into the Northern Ireland squad for the first time. He is in the panel for Saturday's World Cup qualifier against Albania after the withdrawal of Southampton's injured midfielder Jim Magilton.

Magilton himself was summoned earlier yesterday after Anton Rogan, Danny Griffin and Nigel Worthington pulled out because of injuries. Manager Bryan Hamilton also called up St Johnstone striker George O'Boyle.

Meanwhile, Northern Ireland have lined up a friendly against Belgium at Windsor Park on February 11th.
