Glentoran returned to the top of the Women's Premiership table with a comfortable 3-0 win against rivals Linfield at the Blanchflower Stadium.

Emily Wilson latched onto a ball over the top from Demi Vance on 16 minutes to prod home the opener for the hosts.

Vance was provider again for their second goal six minutes after the break, floating in a cross which Aimee Kerr met with a looping header over Lauren Currie.

Wilson wrapped up the win and the valuable three points with her second and Glentoran's third as she finished from close range.

The victory sees Glentoran leap Cliftonville into top spot and they hold a two-point lead over the Reds heading into the split.
