For the second time this season, Glentoran took the spoils from tonight’s ‘Big Two’ derby at The Oval as Marcus Kane’s goal on the stroke of half-time made the difference.

Linfield moved eight points clear at the top of the Sports Direct Premiership this evening with a spirited 1-0 win over champions Larne. It was the Blues’ first League win at Inver Park since December 2021, and just their second win there since Larne’s promotion in 2019. With a depleted squad that seems to be...
In a rare Sunday afternoon fixture, the Blues made the relatively short trip to Taylors Avenue to take on Carrick Rangers with a 12:30 kick-off this afternoon due to Sky Sports’ live broadcast selection.

The first ‘Big Two’ derby of the season ended in disappointment for Linfield who were beaten 3-1 by Glentoran at Windsor Park this evening.
