LURGAN BLUES THROUGH TO LAST FOUR
On form Glenavon booked a spot in the last four of the BetMcLean Cup with victory over Coleraine at The Showgrounds.
It took just half-an-hour for the deadlock to be broken, with two goals coming within a couple of minutes of each other.
Jack Malone opened the scoring on 31 minutes after being the offside trap to run onto Tiarnan Mulvenna's through ball and firing past Gareth Deane.
But Coleraine levelled moments later when, from a Lee Lynch free-kick, Graham Kelly flicked the ball on for the unmarked Dean Jarvis to knock the ball beyond Rory Brown at the far post.
Glenavon regained the lead on the stroke of half-time, however, through Aaron Prendergast's side foot volley after connecting with Peter Campbell's cross from the right.
And that was how it stayed until a couple of minutes from time when substitute Cohen Henderson hit a third for Glenavon with a sublime finish past Deane after Campbell had done well laying the ball off inside the area.
Coleraine hit back in stoppage time after a Conor McKendry cross evaded Rory Brown before going into the net ... and they almost snatched a dramatic equaliser after that when only a combination of keeper and post prevented a Ciaran O'Hara effort from crossing the line!
