Northern Ireland manager Michael O'Neill speaking with Sky Sports: "Delighted obviously with the win and I thought we played very well again. I was disappointed with the way we conceded the goal but we were in control of the game until the opening goal.
"It is hard to create some times, we put good balls into the box, but the set-piece worked well for the opener.
"We learned good lessons on concentration as well, it is big for some of the players coming in and there were big performances all over the pitch."
'We got our reward'
FT: Northern Ireland 2-1 Belarus
Northern Ireland's Jonny Evans speaking to Sky Sports: "Their goal knocked us a bit because we know how hard it is to score, but we kept going. It probably wasn't our best performance, but we got our reward. We wanted the six points, we have tough fixtures coming but we can't ask for any more."
'We find a way to win'
FT: Northern Ireland 2-1 Belarus
Northern Ireland's Josh Magennis speaking to Sky Sports: "The rest of the lads had done the job, I was just blessed to be the one to come on and score. That is what Michael O'Neill asks of his substitute to come on and try and make a difference. We are a team that finds a way of winning.
"We have got a squad that is developing and got a good balance with young lads like Jordan Jones and Gavin Whyte coming through and the experienced guys like Jonny Evans shoring it up at the back."
We are top of the league...

Northern Ireland 1-1 Belarus
Paddy McNair whips in a cross, Kyle Lafferty is lurking with intent, but a defender's head gets it away.
Do Northern Ireland go all out, every man pushed up, even this early in the campaign? Or do they need some caution to protect a point?
Belarus can pass the ball about nicely and might find space on the break.
