    Dungannon Swifts 1-1 Crusaders

    Billy-Joe Burns with a spectacular effort that isn't too far away from edging the Crues in front.

    Lloyd Anderson and Kealon Dillon compete for the ball in midfield as Burns rushes in to gain possession.

    Seeing Conor Mitchell off his line, Burns tries an outside-of-the-boot shot from 25-yards that has the stopper worried, but his effort is off-target.

    A great penalty stroked with conviction, Sean O'Neill had no chance. There is plenty of time left for Coleraine to get back into the game.

  9. CLOSE!published at 16:20 BST 21 October 2023

    Dungannon Swifts 1-1 Crusaders

    A huge chance for Dungannon to regain the lead goes begging!

    Ethan Devine jumps highest to meet Thomas Maguire's corner, but the Linfield loanee's effort is painfully wide of the far post. Devine will be hoping that miss doesn't cost his side at full-time.

    James Singleton is brough to ground inside the area, with huge Glentoran appeals for a penalty.

    Ballymena - and Noah Stewart - double their account!

    Coleraine get in a terrible tangle at the back but look to have survived as Fraser Taylor's initial shot is blocked but Ballymena keep the ball alive and find Stewart who again finds the bottom corner with unerring accuracy.
