    GOAL - Coleraine 1-2 Cliftonvillepublished at 15:25 BST 11 April

    Matthew Shevlin (25 mins)

    It's raining goals at the Showgrounds as Coleraine hit back almost immediately through Matthew Shevlin.

    Again, it comes as a result of poor defending - this time from Cliftonville.

    Luke Conlan attempts a back pass to his keeper, not seeing Shevlin lurking with intent behind him.

    The striker simply rounds Cliftonville keeper PJ Morrison before tapping into an empty net.

    Carrick Rangers 1-1 Ballymena United

    The game has settled here at Taylors Avenue.

    Ballymena with more of the ball but so far they haven't made the extra man count, however, it is still early days in this one.

    Bangor 0-0 Glenavon

    Harry Murphy carries the ball deep out of defence but is dispossessed by Ben Cushnie.

    The former Glentoran man drives forward and flashes a low cross into the area, but the visitors scramble it behind for a corner that eventually comes to nothing.

    GOAL - Coleraine 0-2 Cliftonvillepublished at 15:22 BST 11 April

    Liam McStravick (22 mins)

    Cliftonville double their lead midway through the opening half and, again, it's a goal of Coleraine's own making from a defensive point of view.

    Zane Okoro is closed down by the high press on the right win, the ball quickly ending up at the feet of Joe Gormley.

    He spots the run of Liam McStravick on his right, slipping the ball to the winger who takes a touch before firing low into the bottom far corner past the despairing dive of Ryan Schofield.

    Coleraine 0-1 Cliftonville

    A sweeping Coleraine move featuring Joel Cooper and Zane Okoro sees the later pull the ball back into the path of Will Patching, whose goal bound shot is blocked brilliantly by Aidan Kelly 12 yards out.

  6. goal

    GOAL - Glentoran 1-0 Dungannon Swiftspublished at 15:19 BST 11 April

    Jordan Stewart (19 mins)

    The home side are in front from virtually their first meaningful opening.

    Aaron McEneff lines up a shot from outside the penalty area which Dungannon keeper Alex Henderson pushes away but only as far as Jordan Stewart, who has the simplest of tap-ins.

    Coleraine 0-1 Cliftonville

    A break in play for Conor Pepper to receive treatment, the midfielder coming off second best in a challenge with Coleraine defender Charles Dunne.

    Thankfully, he's able to continue.

  8. goal

    GOAL - Crusaders 1-0 Portadownpublished at 15:17 BST 11 April

    Keiran McKechnie (16 mins)

    Crusaders do make their good early pressure count as Keiran McKechnie slots home from close range.

    Fraser Bryden sends Adam Brooks racing in behind the Portadown defence, and the striker picks out the unmarked McKechnie to fire into an empty net.

    It's no more than the home side deserve after an impressive start to the game.

  9. Postpublished at 15:17 BST 11 April

    Glentoran 0-0 Dungannon Swifts

    Close for Dungannon as Paul Doyle's clever pass cuts the Glentoran backline open and Tiernan Kelly runs through from midfield but, one-on-one with Andrew Mills, the Glentoran keeper blocks the effort with his legs.

    Bangor 0-0 Glenavon

    Peter Campbell works a clever short free-kick to the overlapping Jordan McMullan, who drills a low cross into a crowded box.

    Stephen McGuinness is well-positioned to step in and clear for the home side. The Lurgan Blues are growing in confidence and asking all the questions so far.

    Coleraine 0-1 Cliftonville

    That goal appears to have sparked the hosts into life as Joel Cooper goes close with a volley from just outside the penalty area following good work from Zane Okoro and Levi Ives.

  13. RED CARDpublished at 15:15 BST 11 April

    Carrick Rangers 1-1 Ballymena United

    What a setback for the hosts as Ben Buchanan-Rolleston is shown a red card in the 14th minute for a reckless two-footed lunge on James Hood.

    Bangor 0-0 Glenavon

    Peter Campbell is causing all sorts of problems down the flank and delivers another teasing cross.

    Conor Falls looks certain to sweep it home from 12 yards, but he completely mis-hits as the ball is cleared down the Clandeboye pitch.

  16. Postpublished at 15:14 BST 11 April

    Coleraine 0-1 Cliftonville

    A first sign of Coleraine in an attacking sense.

    Levi Ives' corner to the back post picks out Cameron Stewart but the big defender is unable to keep his header on target.

    Bangor 0-0 Glenavon

    Incredible stop from Gareth Deane!

    Peter Campbell has an eternity to pick his spot and finds Nathaniel Ferris with a pinpoint delivery, but the keeper somehow claws the striker's powerful header away from the top corner.

    Carrick Rangers 1-1 Ballymena United

    That strike was Danny Gibson's 16th of the season. Another super season from the front man.

  19. Postpublished at 15:10 BST 11 April

    Bangor 0-0 Glenavon

    Both sides are intent on playing forward at every opportunity, but the conditions are making for a disjointed opening at Clandeboye Park.

    Crusaders 0-0 Portadown

    What a chance for Crusaders to settle the nerves as Josh Ukek's back pass plays in Adam Brooks, but the striker curls his shot wide of the far post.

    That sums up the Crues' season.
