Aaron Donnelly goes into the book after catching David Toure in midfield.

The home fans are calling for a red, but referee Ross Dunlop opts for a caution this time.

Success Edogun skips past Aaron Donnelly out wide and looks to pick out Calvin McCurry at the back post, but his cross is badly overhit.

McCurry’s frustration says it all.

Aaron Donnelly threads a ball down the left for Leroy Millar, who fires a first-time low cross across the six-yard box, but no one is there to capitalise for the Inver Reds.

Straight from kick-off, the home side burst forward as David Toure whips a cross into the six-yard box, but Rohan Ferguson gathers calmly.

A hint, perhaps, that we might see a bit more attacking intent from Jim Ervin's charges this half.

Back under way at the Ballymena Showgrounds, with the Inver Reds firmly in control after that dominant first half.

The Sky Blues need an early spark here to make a contest of it.

One change at the break as Joel Thompson replaces Daire O'Connor.

Watch as Conor McKendry extends the Inver Reds' lead after good work from Mark Randall.

Half-time at the Ballymena Showgrounds, and it’s been all Larne so far.

Goals from Paul O’Neill and Conor McKendry have the visitors cruising, while Jim Ervin’s Sky Blues will need a serious reset after the break.

One minute left in the first half, and it’s been as one-sided as they come.

You’ve got to wonder what Jim Ervin will have to say to his players at the break.

The corner comes to nothing, as Calvin McCurry’s delivery drifts just beyond Kym Nelson's reach at the back post.

Mark Randall gifts possession to Patrick McEleney in a dangerous area, and the hosts make something of it as Tomas Cosgrove scrambles back to turn the midfielder’s through ball behind for a corner.

Mark Randall smashes a thunderous effort from distance that crashes off the crossbar.

It’s been relentless pressure from the visitors and Randall will be wondering how that one stayed out, with the woodwork coming to the home side's rescue there.

Watch as Paul O'Neill scores his first goal of the league campaign to give Larne the lead at the Ballymena Showgrounds.

It really should be 2-0.

Tiarnan O’Connor threads an inviting through ball for Paul O’Neill, who’s clean through with only Sean O’Neill to beat, but his chipped effort drifts over and lands on the roof of the net.

Calvin McCurry threads it wide to Success Edogun, who looks to whip one in with three Sky Blue shirts waiting, but the winger’s delivery is smothered by James Simpson.

A rare Ballymena foray forward sees Calvin McCurry release Daire O’Connor down the left, but his first-time cross sails over James Hood at the back post, allowing the Inver Reds to break swiftly on the counter.

Another teasing corner from Mark Randall finds Matt Ridley rising at the front post, but Matthew Clarke does just enough to nudge the towering defender off balance and prevent a clean header.

Paul O’Neill thinks he’s opened the scoring, tucking home from close range after Conor McKendry’s low cross, but the flag quickly ends the celebrations with McKendry caught offside in the build-up.

Leroy Millar collects inside the box, spins smartly and tries his luck with a left-footed effort, but it’s tame and straight at Sean O’Neill.

A comfortable save for the Sky Blues keeper.
