Poor defending led to the goal and Shevlin didn't hand about. He supplied an electrifying finish.

Joe Moore races clear of the Newry defence, but with just Conor Mitchell to beat, the winger fires straight at the City stopper, who turns the ball behind for a corner.

Kurtis Forsythe does well to clear an inviting ball into the Carrick penalty box as the away side continue to dominate.

The Newry City goal is under siege.

Darren King is forced to head clear twice in a matter of seconds from crosses either side of Noel Healy's block from Alves's strike from outside the area.

Then, Conor Mitchell can only watch as Gael Bigirimana's first-time effort from distance narrowly misses the top corner as Dungannon Swifts look to double their advantage.

Good work from Alberto Balde tees up Jordan Gibson whose cushioned effort from the edge of the box curls just wide.

Jay Donnelly brilliantly controls Aaron McCarey's clearance and his goal bound shot is bravely blocked by Coleraine's Graham Kelly.

A bright start to the second half at Coleraine.

Calvin McCurry's curling header from a Sean Brown cross makes Ross Glendinning produce a great save.

Ballymena are really pushing for a goal here.

Len O'Sullivan's cutback to Gavin Hodgins ends up in the back of the net but Glenavon celebrations are cut short by the offside flag.

Alberto Balde is the third Loughgall player to be carded as he brings down James Doona as he tries to break.

James Knowles punches the ground in frustration as the midfielder fails to make a clean connection on the ball in the six-yard area.

Despite this, Conor Mitchell is still needed at full stretch to claw away Knowles' effort.

Jamie Glackin is fouled 30 yards from goal and from the resulting free kick, Josh Carson try's his luck.

And he was mighty close too as his effort just skimmed past Aaron McCarey's right-hand post.

Alex Gawne does well to find space with his shot from the left hand side of the penalty area narrowly wide of the far post.

That's by far the best chance of the game!

Newry's start to the second half has been positive, but Andy Mitchell goes close to catching out Conor Mitchell at his near post.

Nevertheless, the frontman frustratingly sees his effort fall just wide of the target.

James Doona tries to lob Beraat Turker but puts too much on it and troubles the golfers on the course behind more than the Loughgall goal.

Brandon Doyle splits the Dungannon Swift's defence with a teasing through ball for Adam Salley, but Declan Dunne reads the danger and gathers comfortably.

Ben Tilney's strike from the edge of the box makes Sean O'Neill produce his first save of the second half, albeit a comfortable one.

Back underway at Lakeview Park with both sides unchanged.

No changes for either side as Brendan Barr gets the action back underway at the Loughview Leisure Arena.
