Irish Premiership: Linfield edge out Glenavon after late late show

Linfield got back to winning ways last night (Tuesday) at Windsor Park - just four days after defeat to Big Two rivals, Glentoran.

David Healy's side beat Glenavon 3-2 - but needed a strike just minutes from time from sub Eetu Vertainaen to claim all three points.

The Blues got off to a great start with a Kirk Millar goal but Glenavon responded with a double from Matthew Fitzpatrick.

Joel Cooper then equalised before Vertainaen hit home in the 87th minute.

The Blues move up to sixth in the Irish Premiership table as a result with Glenavon ninth.
