    Stoke City striker Sorba Thomas scored his second senior international goal for Wales in a 1-1 home draw with Northern Ireland in a friendly on Tuesday night.

    The 27-year-old poked home from close range to equalise less than a minute into the second half to cancel out Jamie Donley's 22nd-minute opener for the visitors.

    Both nations were still reeling from their World Cup play-off semi-final defeats last Thursday against Bosnia-Herzegovina and Italy respectively, resulting in a relatively lacklustre encounter at Cardiff City Stadium.

    Thomas has 25 international caps and his only previous goal for Wales came in World Cup qualifying in June 2025 in a 4-3 defeat by Belgium in Brussels.

    He will now return to the Potters before they host already-relegated Sheffield Wednesday in the Championship on Saturday (15:00 BST).
