    Philip Major
    Sportsound summariser

    It was a bit like the third Cliftonville goal. David Jeffrey has thrown five substitutes on and has tried to switch things.

    They are back in the game, but they need to get another goal fairly quickly. They have shown a good response.

    Limavady United 0-1 Dungannon Swifts

    Limavady United should be level as we move towards the hour mark after another impressive break forward by the hosts.

    Alfie Gaston surges forward and plays in Philip Lowry, whose first-time shot is parried out by Declan Dunne.

    The loose ball bounces awkwardly for Gaston in front of goal and he skies the rebound over.

    Big let off for the Swifts.

  15. GREAT SAVE!published at 16:19 BST 5 September

    That has been coming. The last 15 minutes of the first half and the start of the second half, it has been all Linfield.

    I just don't see a way back for Carrick, down to 10 and 1-0 down. I think the long wait for their first victory [at Windsor] will continue.

  18. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 16:16 BST 5 September

    Some people have been asking questions of Brian Healy and his lack of goals but, today, he has been really, really good. It was a smashing finish.

    It looks like Cliftonville are home and hosed.

    Ben Hall (55 mins)

    He may have been denied a minute earlier but there is nothing Nathan Gartside can do this time as Ben Hall heads Linfield in front.

    The defender rises highest to meet Kirk Millar's cross from the right to break the deadlock and give his side a deserved lead.

    The Blues have been on top for the majority of the afternoon and a goal was coming, particularly after Jimmy Callacher's dismissal.

    Long way back for the visitors now a goal and a man down.
