Vikingur's Stefan Radosavlevic is cautioned for a late challenge on Kieran Offord.

No sign of injury as Matt Ridley comes on in place of Conor McKendry after 38 minutes. Perhaps Nathan Rooney trying to stem the flow somewhat.

Ryan Nolan is flattened by Wendel Silva as the two go for a header but it is the Santa Clara manager Vasco Matos who is carded for his protests.

Wow that was close! The ball is worked to the edge of the Larne box and Gabriel Silva whistles a first-time shot just wide.

It is Sidney Lima this time who cries out in pain after a Dylan Sloan tackle but nothing is given by the referee much to the amusement of the home support.

A chance for Vikingur as the ball drops to Jakup Johansen but Ben Hall flings himself at the ball to take a lot of the sting out of the effort and the ball drops kindly for Chris Johns to grab.

It's a warning, though, that Linfield have to remain fully focused at the back.
