Match report
Coleraine held on for a narrow victory over Glentoran in the Premiership regular season on Tuesday night. The away side took the points with a 2:1 scoreline at the home ground. It was a result that extended their unbeaten run while leaving Glentoran still searching for consistency.
The visitors put the game to bed early in the final third, scoring twice in quick succession. J. Thomson opened the scoring in the 72nd minute before J. Jenkins added a second shortly after. Glentoran pulled one back late on through L. McGregor in the 90+4th minute, but it was too little too late.
And here's the thing, Glentoran kept possession in pockets but struggled to convert pressure into chances. The home side had four shots on target compared to five for the visitors, yet they could not find the net until the dying embers.
The match grew scrappy as the clock wound down, with five yellow cards for the hosts alone. R. Cooney was booked early on, while J. Singleton picked up a caution in the 65th minute. Several substitutions were made in the closing stages as both managers tried to control the outcome.
By then, Coleraine had extended their lead at the top of the table to 12 points. They sit on 19 points from seven games, with only one draw to their name so far. Glentoran remain in eighth place with seven points, having lost four of their seven outings.
The result leaves Coleraine firmly established at the summit, while Glentoran face a tough run of fixtures. The away side can raise the tempo when they need to, as shown by their dominance in attacks.
