Jonny Evans has become the latest Northern Ireland player to withdraw from the squad for the World Cup qualifier against the Czech Republic.
Defender Evans pulled out of the panel with an ankle injury before the party travelled to Prague on Monday.
Kyle Lafferty, George McCartney, Sammy Clingan, Andrew Little and Chris Brunt are also ruled out of the match.
Manchester City's Ryan McGivern and Dunfermline's Andy Kirk have been called up to the squad as replacements.
Northern Ireland's slim hopes of securing a play-off place were effectively ended on Saturday night.
Slovenia defeated group leaders Slovakia 2-0 and the two are now vying for the one automatic qualification spot, with the other entering the play-offs.
Sunderland defender McCartney is ruled out by a foot injury while Lafferty withdrew from the squad on Friday evening because of a chest infection.
Manchester City's Ryan McGivern and Dunfermline's Andy Kirk have been called up to the squad as replacements.
Kirk won the last of his 11 caps against Estonia in 2006.
McCartney missed the last two qualifiers with a hamstring problem.
Clingan will be out for six weeks with a broken toe while Brunt is set to miss three weeks of action after suffering a recurrence of a calf strain.
Little will be absent for six weeks with a hamstring injury.
Worthington brought Michael O'Connor, who has been in good form with Scunthorpe, into the squad.
