Northern Ireland footballer Daniel Ballard has been praised for his thoughtful act in supporting a young East Belfast boy who was mascot for Sunday's game against Finland.
"Charlie had a brilliant night, and that's what matters. I quickly forgot about the result after seeing how happy it made him," said Charlie's dad, Stuart. "We tried again for Sunday's game and found out last week Charlie had won a place. He had to go to Windsor on Friday night for a rehearsal, and he got to see the changing rooms, dugout and media theatre.
"You see it at some games in England and other leagues, but to see it here was brilliant. For Daniel to show his support like that is much appreciated.
