Northern Ireland striker Kyle Lafferty declares himself fit for his side's Euro 2016 opener against Poland in Nice.

Northern Ireland striker Kyle Lafferty has declared himself fit for his side's Euro 2016 opener against Poland on Sunday.

The 28-year-old was faced with a race to be ready in time for the match in Nice having limped out of training with a groin problem on Tuesday.

However, he is now back training with the rest of the squad and insists that he has "never felt better".

"It's feeling good, I trained by myself yesterday, did a few runs, a few twists and turns and it feels good," he said in an interview with the Irish Football Association.

"Seeing the way I fell, the way I landed, I thought the worst, but I came through it and got the scan results which were all clear and I've never felt better. When I had the sharpest pain in my groin, I thought the worst, as you do, but the longer the day went on, I started feeling better as I was getting more stiff and that was probably a good sign.

"I went for a scan and the results came back clear and it gave me the go-ahead to start training intense again. I have and I feel great."

Northern Ireland will also face Germany and Ukraine in Group C.
