Irish Premiership: Coleraine close gap at the top as Glentoran v Larne postponed

Advertisements

The visitors grabbed the lead midway through the opening half, just minutes after Joel Cooper had struck the woodwork for the home side.

Billy Joe Burns lofted a high, hopeful ball into the heart of the penalty area where Ryan Waide reacted quickly to a flick on before guiding the ball past Coleraine goalkeeper Aidan Harris from six yards.

The Bannsiders drew level just before the break thanks to Zane Okoro’s first goal for the club on his first start.

The on-loan Lincoln City winger controlled a pinpoint pass from Levi Ives on his chest before bearing down on goal.

As Nathan Gartside raced off his line, the American clipped the ball towards goal, the final touch coming off Carrick Rangers defender Ryan McKay.

The hosts went in front just after the hour thanks to Joel Cooper’s fifth league goal of the season.

Will Patching and Jamie Glackin combined to set up Cooper, who had the simple task of tapping home from close range.

Glackin was denied by a smart save from Gartside in the closing moments while Danny Gibson passed up a great chance for Carrick in added time.
