We came back from the dead and won a football match. This is why we love the game.

It was a controversial game from start to finish and the officiating, I think the referee found himself out of his depth.

After their comfortable win this afternoon Ballymena United are the early pacesetters at the top of the Irish Premiership table ahead of tomorrow's three games.

Glentoran boss Declan Devine speaking on BBC Sportsound following their narrow win: "It was a really tough game, we knew Portadown are a good side and have a really good attacking threat here at Shamrock Park. We had lost a lot of players leading into this, so it was important we didn't feel sorry for ourselves."

"It was a tough battle but a bit of magic from Jordan Jenkins to set up the goal and a great finish from Danny Amos."

Ballymena United boss Jim Ervin speaking on BBC Sportsound about Donal Rocks' stunning second goal: "We were getting ready to hook him and he has just absolutely laced it. He told us he laced it as his legs were like jelly! It was hit and hope but you take that."

On winning their opening game for the first time in five years: "The performance was pretty good, we knew Glenavon would come at us, but we stood up. Three points, two goals and a clean sheet which is a big thing. It is only the first game, so we are not going to get carried away."

Game, set and match for Carrick at Seaview.

What drama as Carrick collect all three points.

Jack Scott keeps his cool to score his second penalty and seal a remarkable win for Carrick.

Donal Rocks' double gives Ballymena an opening day victory at Mourneview Park.

Glenavon boss Paddy McLaughlin will be disappointed with his side's lack of attacking threat.

Full-time at Shamrock Park. Danny Amos’ first-half strike is enough for Glentoran to start the season with three points. Niall Currie's men had their moments, but never really made Andrew Mills work.

The Glens see it out with a bit to spare.

James Singleton goes into the book after stopping Lee Chapman in full flow. Right call from Shane Andrews.

David McDaid curls a free kick over - that might be Glenavon's final chance as we're now deep in injury time.

Ballymena bring on fresh legs as the minutes tick down with Kym Nelson, Daire O'Connor and Jack O'Reilly replacing Joel Thompson, Kian Corbally and Ben Kennedy.

Penalty to Carrick!

A few minutes to go, and Declan Devine’s telling his players to take their time whenever the ball’s out of play.

No surprises there - the Glens are happy to run down the clock.

My goodness, Carrick almost steal it.

A cross from the left is totally mis-judged by Crues' keeper Musa Dibaga, allowing Paul Heatley to sneak in behind and shoot from an acute angle.

The ball just runs across the face of goal and cleared. So close.

Stephen Mallon, with his trademark look of socks around his ankles, cuts inside and fires a curling shot which Sean O'Neill comfortably holds.

That's about as stretched as the United keeper has been up to this point.
