  2. FULL-TIMEpublished at 21:55 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2016

    Ballinamallard United 1-0 Portadown

    The 10 men of Ballinamallard beat bottom club Portadown 1-0 thanks to a goal by Adam Lecky shortly after Ross Taheny had been sent off for a foul on Aaron Haire.

    It's a massive result for the Mallards, pulling them away from the danger zone. But a disastrous result for Niall Currie's Portadown - and not great news for one from bottom Carrick Rangers either.

    The Ports are pressing for an equaliser with the extra man at Ballinamallard - but having no joy against a well organised home team. Running out of time....

    Glenavon 2-2 Cliftonville

    Glenavon will be disappointed to draw after surging in that 2-0 lead. But the point takes them back into the top half of the table, as they nudge ahead of Dungannon who play at Glentoran tomorrow.

  10. RED CARDpublished at 20:38 Greenwich Mean Time 30 December 2016

    Ballinamallard United 0-0 Portadown

    Ballinamallard's Ross Taheny is sent-off for as foul on Portadown's Aaron Haire - but that's only half the story. The tackle was right on the line and Portadown were pleading with a penalty. Referee Lee Tavinder awards a free on the edge of the box and shows a red card to Ryan McConnell. Wrong man!

    The ref quickly corrects the case of mistaken identity and Taheny is given his marching orders instead.

    Irish Premiership

    We will have the latest scores on tonight's Irish Premiership matches at Mourneview Park and Ferney Park.

    Cliftonville aim to bounce back from their heavy Boxing Day defeat by Crusaders when they face Glenavon.

    Bottom club Portadown, 10 points behind 11th-place Carrick, travel to Ballinamallard.

    This is the Ports' third meeting with the Mallards this season - and they've had a different manager every time. Can Niall Currie come away with a much-needed win?
