  7. Ballymena United 1-0 Coleraine

    Ballymena break quickly on the counter-attack with Kian Corbally switching play with a diagonal ball to Jack O'Reilly whose low shot is well-struck but it's too close to Coleraine keeper Ryan Schofield.

  8. Carrick Rangers 1-0 Larne

    Colin Coates
    Former Crusaders captain on BBC Sportsound

    There was only going to be one outcome once he [Heatley] goes through.

    After Larne had probably started the half the better of the two sides, it is Carrick who get the first goal on the counter.

    Another half-chance for the home side, who are pushing for an eqauliser.

  11. GREAT SAVE!

    Cliftonville 0-1 Crusaders

    Jack Keaney bends a free-kick from 25 yards, and it looks destined for the bottom corner, but Musa Dibaga produces a stunning fingertip save at full stretch to claw it away.

    A brilliant stop to preserve the Crues' lead.

  12. YELLOW CARD

    Linfield 0-1 Glentoran

    Linfield captain Jamie Mulgrew is booked.

  13. goal

    GOAL - Carrick Rangers 1-0 Larne

    Paul Heatley (56 mins)

    The home side break the deadlock 11 minutes into the second half and it's Paul Heatley with a trademark finish.

    Billy Joe Burns does brilliantly initially to break up a Larne attack before curling an ball with the outside ofnhis right foot in behind the Larne defence.

    Heatley times his run from his own half to perfection and races on to the ball unopposed inside the Larne half.

    He simply outpaces his opponents before having the calmness to lift the ball over the advancing Rohan Ferguson and into an empty net.

    A brilliant finish from the evergreen front man.

  14. Portadown 1-0 Glenavon

    Portadown break after a Glenavon corner and James Teelan sprints into the Glenavon half for a promising attack, but he has a heavy touch while on his travels and the ball bobbles out of play.

  15. Ballymena United 1-0 Coleraine

    Jamie McGonigle fires a shot on the turn for Coleraine but it trundles through, almost in slow-motion, to Sean O'Neill.

  16. GREAT SAVE!

    Linfield 0-1 Glentoran

    It really should be 2-0 to Glentoran if it wasn't for Chris Johns!

    Jordan Jenkins is played through on goal with only the keeper to beat, but the onrushing Johns denies him with a superb stop.

    The visitors enjoying a spell of successive chances as they look to double their lead.

  20. Carrick Rangers 0-0 Larne

    Concern for the visitors as Ryan Nolan stays down after winning a header inside the Carrick Rangers penalty area.

    Thankfully, a quick dab with the magic sponge and he's able to continue.
