Clinical fourm

Coleraine 2-4 Cliftonville

Cliftonville produced a clinical display to see off Coleraine in an entertaining contest at The Showgrounds this afternoon.

Two early strikes from Rory Hale set the Reds on their way and, though a hugely fortunate deflected effort from Conor McKendry reduced the deficit before half-time, Ryan Curran’s header restored the visitors’ two-goal advantage.

Matthew Shevlin’s finish set up a nervy finale but a nonchalant header from substitute Joe Gormley wrapped up the points.
