Thanks for joining us. Good evening!

That's the full-time whistle at the Ballymena Showgrounds and what a second half from Cliftonville to book their place in the County Antrim Shield final against Carrick Rangers.

Success Edogun had given the hosts the lead at the interval, but a ruthless performance from the Reds in the second period turned things around with Jack Keaney equalising and by the time he grabbed his second late on, Joe Gormley and Rory Hale had given his side a cushion.

All over at the Showgrounds where Larne leap frog Coleraine to the top of the table following a 2-1 win.

The visitors went in front three minutes before half-time through Leroy Millar's first goal of the season and doubled their advantage in added time when Sean Graham volleyed home from 12 yards.

The Bannsiders pulled a goal back in added time at the end of the game, Matthew Shevlin sweeping home his 10th of the campaign, but it was all too little, too little for Ruaidhri Higgins' side.

Larne now enjoy a two point lead at the top while it's back to back defeats for the first time this season for the Bannsiders.

That is an exceptional strike from Matthew Shevlin. A superb finish. Could Coleraine do the unthinkable and the impossible?

Chris McKee's fourth goal of the season earns Linfield three precious points.

The Blues remain fourth in the table but close to within a point of third-placed Glentoran.

The result brings to an end Crusaders' three-match unbeaten run.

There is no doubt Cliftonville are heading to the County Antrim Shield final now as Jack Keaney has scored his second of the evening with minutes remaining. What a second half the Reds have produced.

Five additional minutes to be played.

Kyle McClean's close-range shot is saved by the leg of Jonny Tuffey as Linfield press for a game-clinching second goal.

Coleraine sub Zane Okoro goes into referee Ben McMaster's notebook.

Second half sub Paul O'Neill in acres of space elects to go himself, his well struck volley going the wrong side of the upright.

Scot Whiteside heads Kurtis Forsythe's teasing cross behind for a corner and earns praise from his keeper Chris Johns.

From the resultant Finley Thorndike header, Lloyd Anderson heads wide.

Can Crusaders muster an equaliser in these closing minutes?

It's going to be a big task to breakdown that Larne defence. At one stage they had nine men behind the ball.

Crusaders boss Declan Caddell shuffles his pack as Oli McCart comes on in place of Elliot Dunlop.

Rory Hale nets Cliftonville's third in the 79th minute and they are well on their way to the County Antrim Shield final.

Coleraine have created few chances this evening but Dean Jarvis has just screwed his left foot shot wide of the target following some neat approach play.

David Healy makes a double switch as Ethan McGee and Matt Yates come on in place of Kirk Millar and Chris McKee.

We're into the last 10 minutes at Windsor Park.

You certainty couldn't fault Coleraine's effort. It's these set pieces they need to get something.

Big hugs from Larne manager Gary Haveron for Conor McKendry and goalscorer Leroy Millar as they leave the play to be replaced by James Simpson and Matthew Lusty.

Approaching 10 minutes to go.

Linfield go close as Sam Taylor intercepts Jordan Forsythe's pass and runs forward before releasing Chris McKee in the right-hand channel.

The striker's effort certainly doesn't lack power but it's close enough to Jonny Tuffey for the keeper to beat it away.
