Manchester United defender Jonny Evans has pulled out of Northern Ireland's friendly against Albania tomorrow. Evans was returning home today after taking a knock on his knee during the Carling Cup victory over Aston Villa on Sunday at Wembley. The decision was taken when he was re-assessed this morning by the Northern Ireland medical staff after missing training last night.
