Goalless at the break.

Linfield were certainly the team on top in the first half, particularly from the midway point onwards.

That being said neither side have found the opening goal so far, with it all to play for in the second half at Windsor Park.

David Odumosu denies Chris Shields from the spot!

That is an absolutely outstanding save from the Cliftonville goalkeeper who dives to his left and pushes Shields' strike around the post.

Odumosu has produced at least three superb saves in the first half already.

Penalty to Linfield as Joel Cooper is brought down by Axel Piesold inside the area!

David Odumosu produces an outstanding save at full stretch to deny Joel Cooper from distance.

Cliftonville lose the ball in midfield as Cameron Ballantyne finds Cooper before the lively forward strikes from distance but is denied by the goalkeeper.

The Blues are in the ascendancy and have the Reds pinned back inside their own half.

Micheal Glynn is the first player to go in referee Ian McNabb's notebook as he receives a yellow card.

Kyle McClean strikes from distance for the second time this half and comes agonisingly close to giving Linfield the lead.

The Blues are definitely the team on top now after a fairly even opening 20 minutes.

A touching moment in the 27th minute as both Linfield and Cliftonville players, staff, fans and officials join in together with a minute's applause as a tribute to Michael Newberry.

Chants of 'one Michael Newberry' ring out around Windsor Park.

Touch of class from both sides.

Cliftonville break forward down the right, as Micheal Glynn crossed into a dangerous area, with Linfield half clearing before Axel Piesold strikes from the edge of the box but can't keep his effort on target.

Moments later Linfield go up the other end as Kyle McClean unleashes a fierce strike but is denied by David Odumosu who produces a fine save.

The game seems to be opening up a bit more now midway through the first half.

Some sustained pressure from Linfield now as they go in search of the opening goal.

David Odumosu makes a smart save at his near post from a Kyle McClean effort, after he gets on the end of a Matthew Fitzpatrick flick on.

Jonny Addis gets his head on a Rory Addis free-kick but can't direct his header on target.

It was a free header for Addis, who will be frustrated that he couldn't keep his effort between the sticks.

No real chances up either end of note in the opening 10 minutes.

The vast majority of the match has been played in midfield so far.

Lively enough start as Linfield look to assert themselves and control possession.

Euan East has had a few bursts forward down the left-hand side and looks to be in acres of space in the opening exchanges.

Joe Gormley gets us underway under the lights at Windsor Park.

Which way will this one go?

Thumbs up for Linfield, thumbs down for Cliftonville!

Cliftonville manager Jim Magilton has reflected on the harrowing moment he told his players of the death of their team-mate Michael Newberry at the end of December.

Newberry's sudden passing had a profound impact on everyone across the Irish League family and Magilton says informing his squad of the devastating news was among the most difficult experiences of his life.

"I had a really tough experience, my father had a massive heart attack in front of me and I couldn't save his life. I had to try to resuscitate him and it didn't happen. The paramedics then spent 45 minutes trying to resuscitate him and couldn't," explained Magilton.

"That was the lowest I've ever been in my life up until I got a phone call from Mr Newberry [Michael's father] on that morning.

"There were no coaching manuals helping me to deal with that. Nothing prepares you for standing in front of a group of men, playing colleagues, and telling them that they've lost one of their colleagues. That will live with me for the rest of my days."

Sub' Sam McClintock broke the offside trap but was denied by a fine save by Swifts' keeper but there was Shevlin to blast home the rebound and make it 1-1 after a pulsating 94 minutes.

What an almighty scramble in the Dungannon penalty box as Coleraine throw everything in their desperate attempts to grab a late equaliser.
