    So, it's as you were at the top of the Irish Premiership as Coleraine and Larne both grab three points on home soil.

    The Bannsiders hold a slender advantage on goal difference from Larne who do have two games in hand, while the Glens fall further off the pace.

    There are reports, reaction and highlights to come on the BBC Sport website and tomorrow we have the remaining four games of the weekend.

    Until then, have a great night and enjoy the rest of your Friday.

    Coleraine 2-0 Bangor

    It's all over at the Showgrounds where first half goals from Joel Cooper and Matthew Shevlin secure a 2-0 win.

    Cooper opened the scoring after just seven minutes with a well worked goal before strike partner Shevlin doubled then lead after a quarter of an hour with a close range finish.

    Ben Arthurs was denied by a tremendous save from debutant goalkeeper Ryan Schofield after half-time, while Coleraine passed up a number of chances late on.

    But it's the Bannsiders who claim the points and remain top of the table.

    Larne 1-0 Glentoran

    Close for Glentoran as Jordan Stewart collects a Michael-John Kamson Kamara knockdown but his shot whistles inches wide of the near post.

    Benji Magee (82 mins)

    The deadlock is broken and it's Larne who are in front.

    It's a moment of individual magic from Benji Magee who, with very little seemingly on, collects the ball and drifts away from Cammy Palmer before drilling a low angled shot beyond Andrew Mills.

    We have lift-off at last in this game!
