    Dungannon Swifts 1-2 Portadown

    Plenty for both managers to ponder at the break.

    Do Rodney McAree’s 10-men hang tight and gamble late, and does Niall Currie push for a killer third or sit in and pick off Dungannon on the counter?

    We are about to find out shortly at a sun-soaked Stangmore Park.

    Glentoran have completely dominated the first half and will be disappointed that they are not in front.

    They have had three or four excellent chances and have dictated the game. They have done everything but score.

    Bangor need to be braver on the ball and show more composure.

  8. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:52 British Summer Time 16 August

    Dungannon Swifts 1-2 Portadown

    What a first half that was.

    The Ports were in full control, and their two-goal lead was fully deserved.

    The Swifts pulled one back and were building momentum, but they have a mountain to climb after that red card for their skipper, Gael Bigirimana.

  9. DISALLOWED GOALpublished at 15:50 British Summer Time 16 August

    Dungannon Swifts 1-2 Portadown

    Dungannon think they have their equaliser!

    It's a real sucker punch for the home side as Tomas Galvin bundles the ball home from close range after a Gary Thompson touch turns a Kealan Dillon pass into his path.

    But the celebrations are cut short almost instantly as the linesman's flag goes up. Galvin is a fraction too early, and the goal is ruled out.

    HT: Cliftonville 0-0 Coleraine

    Sportsound summariser

    Jim Magilton will be really pleased with his side's performance; their intensity and work-rate has been good. I think the creativity, they don't have the right mix of players to create chances, but they have been very competitive.

  11. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:49 British Summer Time 16 August

    Cliftonville 0-0 Coleraine

    No goals at Solitude but plenty of endeavour from both sides.

    Rory Hale flashed an early shot wide of the Coleraine goal before Levi Ives forced a fine save from PJ Morrison.

    Jamie Glackin came closest for the visitors midway through the half but neither side has been able to make the breakthrough as yet.

  13. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:48 British Summer Time 16 August

    Glentoran 0-0 Bangor

    It remains all square at the interval at the Oval.

    As might have been expected, Glentoran have had more attacking impetus but, save for Jordan Jenkins hitting the crossbar from point-blank range and Gareth Deane's save from a Jordan Stewart header, the visitors have looked relatively comfortable..

    Lee Feeney will be pleased with his side's opening 45 minutes.

  14. HALF-TIMEpublished at 15:47 British Summer Time 16 August

    Carrick Rangers 1-0 Glenavon

    Danny Gibson's strike gives Carrick the lead at the break.

  15. YELLOW CARDpublished at 15:47 British Summer Time 16 August

    Cliftonville 0-0 Coleraine

    Jack Keaney is the second Cliftonville player to be booked after pulling back Jamie Glackin.

    Resulting free-kick from Will Patching comes to nothing.

    As we head towards the interval, the fourth official signals for three minutes of added time.

    Coleraine will want to get Joel Cooper on the ball more in the Cliftonville box, he is playing a bit more withdrawn and hasn't really got into it too much. I would like to see him get closer to Matthew Shevlin.

    Cliftonville 0-0 Coleraine

    A minimum of three additional minutes to be played.
