Elliot Dunlop breezes past Jonny Addis and drills a low effort towards the near post, but Lewis Ridd makes a sharp save with his foot.

The winger has looked lively every time he’s had the ball and has been the standout player in the opening 39 minutes.

Half a chance for the Blues as Kyle McClean's header is almost met by Ben Hall following an Ethan McGee long throw-in, but the Linfield defender can't quite get any contact on the ball.

Ben Arthurs goes on a great solo run taking Peter Maguire out of the game with clever footwork, but Steven Scott manages to block the shot from the Bangor striker.

Jarlath O'Rourke celebrates, but it looks like Ryan Curran got the final touch as he heads into his own net to give Crusaders the lead at Solitude.

Thomas Lavery skips past Elliot Dunlop with ease and drives into the penalty area before drilling a low effort towards the far post, but it flashes just wide.

Larne captain Leroy Millar is the first player to go into referee Steven Gregg's notebook for a late challenge on Paul Heatley in the centre circle.

The away side fails to deal with a cross from the left, and it drops kindly for Eric McWoods.

The striker spins sharply and gets a shot away, but it clips a defender on the way through and flies behind for a corner.

You might just have seen goal of the season.

He [Thomson] did what I love to see players do, as Linfield defenders backed off, he pulled the trigger from 25 yards.

As good a season as Chris Johns is having in the Linfield goal, he had no chance whatsoever. Two goalkeepers wouldn't have saved that!

Keevan Hawthorne swings in a teasing cross from the left towards the six-yard box, but Jarlath O’Rourke stays switched on and clears the danger.

Just over half an hour gone at Taylor's Avenue where we await our first goal.

Plenty of industry but a lack of quality in the final third as both teams battle for supremacy.

Daire O'Connor cuts the ball back across the face of the Coleraine penalty area but the in-rushing Aaron Jarvis can only miscue his effort wide of the target.

Great shot from outside the box from Glenavon’s Jack Malone but Aaron McCarey pulls of an even better save down low to his near post to send the ball behind for a corner which comes to nothing.

Chris Johns does extremely well to get down to his right and tip Cameron Palmer's volley around the post to prevent the visitors from going a goal in front.

The Glens are enjoying a spell of pressure now and look to have found their mojo.

That's the visitors' first goal in six league outings. Not how they’d have imagined it, but they won’t care one bit.

Leroy Millar's low cross is diverted out for a first Larne corner.

Bangor are beginning to find a rhythm in the game now.

A lot of play is taking place in the middle of the pitch, as both teams attempt to create clear-cut chances.

James Teelan controls a ball over the top of the Glenavon defence and finds a bit of space to get off the shot, but it’s a weak effort that Jacob Carney easily saves.

From the resulting free-kick, Matthew Fitzpatrick shoots from inside the area but his effort is blocked.

The game has really livened up now as both teams go in search of an opener.
