Corey Smith takes a free-kick from a wide angle which bounces just wide of post.

Glenavon have responded well to the Dungannon Swifts goal.

Dean Jarvis, who signed an extension to his Coleraine contract earlier this week, tries his luck from distance but it's a straightforward save for Aaron McCarey.

We have our first yellow card of the afternoon and it goes to Coleraine's Charles Dunne.

The big defender loses control of the ball inside the Portadown half and catches Gary Thompson with a late challenge.

Easy decision for referee Declan Hassan.

Sean O'Neill will be disappointed, and the Ballymena defenders will be disappointed

Particularly because they were getting themselves into the game and have had the better chances.

That is a real kick.

Michael O'Connor is the first person into Steven Gregg's book this afternoon after he shoved Steven Scott to the ground.

Watch Junior Ogedi-Uzokwe slide the ball home to give Dungannon the lead against Glenavon.

Cliftonville have broken the deadlock against Carrick Rangers at Taylors Avenue with Shaun Leppard rising to head home from a free-kick.

Luke McCullough denies Eric McWoods from connecting with the ball in the box.

That was good defending from the Carrick captain.

This game has been a great watch.

The visitors are growing in confidence as we pass the midway point of the first half.

Ballymena seem to be targeting the right-hand side of Linfield's defence with Success Edogun showing his physical prowess on more than one occasion.

Since the opening goal, Carrick have tried to push forward.

However, they are yet to test Peter Morrison at a rainy Taylors Avenue.

Dangerous corner swung in left-footed from Steven McCullough is gratefully grabbed by Coleraine goalkeeper Aidan Harris.

Glentoran's James Singleton goes down under a challenge from Odhran McCart just on the edge of the penalty area.

The Glentoran fans bay for a penalty but referee Tim Marshall remains unmoved.

Dungannon Swifts go close again with slick passing around the Glenavon box. Junior was unable to finish under pressure from a Glenavon defender.

Coleraine appeal for a spot-kick as Joel Cooper goes tumbling in the box.

They have to settle for a corner.

Best chance of the afternoon so far goes the way of the visitors.

Success Edogun does well to hold off Sean Brown before turning inside the area and forcing Chris Johns into a save.

Linfield will be relieved Edogun couldn't get full contact with his shot or it could have been a goal.
