 Paul Leeman is congratulated by Colin Nixon after scoring |
Glentoran are level with Linfield and Cliftonville at the top of the Carnegie Premier League table after a deserved win away to Lisburn Distillery. Poor marking in the Whites defence allowed Paul Leeman to score with a close-range header from Kyle Neill's corner after just seven minutes.
The second was an own goal by former Glens defender Michael Ferguson made it 2-0 when attempting to cut out a cross.
Distillery scored through an Andrew Waterworth penalty on 64 minutes.
Referee Mark Courtney pointed to the spot after Kyle Neill's challenge on Waterworth.
Glentoran manager Alan McDonald felt the spot-kick award was harsh on his side.
"In my opinion there were two more blatant penalties in our favour which were ignored," said the Glens boss.
"But it is good to get a second win here this season because it is a difficult place to come.
"Distillery are a good side as their three wins so far indicate but I felt we did a professional job."
