Published Date:

Cliftonville put their poor early-season form behind as they romped past Glentoran 3-0 in Wednesday's County Antrim Shield semi-final.
The Reds went ahead on 39 minutes with Barry Johnston unleashing a great shot from just inside the penalty area after a slick passing move.
It was 2-0 three minutes later when Sean Ward headed Rory Hamill's corner into his own net.
Great work by Francis Murphy set up Chris Scannell's third goal on 75.
Murphy beat three challenges before teeing up Scannell to score.
The Reds were the better side throughout the contest and Glentoran scarcely had a decent chance.
Cliftonville's win sets up a decider against Linfield, who edged out Crusaders on penalties in Tuesday's opening semi-final.
