LARNE CRUISE PAST VILLAGERS
Larne hit four goals past bottom of the table Loughgall at Lakeview Park to move into the top half of the Sports Direct Premiership.
Shaun Want opened the scoring on 13 minutes with a close range header after the home defence failed to clear Christopher Gallagher's corner.
Then, just a couple of minutes after that, Tiarnan O'Connor doubled the visitors advantage when, from another corner, he made the most of some inefficient defending to force the ball home from close range.
Kirk McLaughlin pulled one back for Loughgall after half-an-hour when he connected with Pablo Andrade's shot from the edge of the area to divert it past Rohan Ferguson.
Larne restored their two-goal cushion five minutes after the break through Paul O'Neill after he raced onto a long ball to lift it over the advancing Nathan Gartside.
Andy Ryan then completed the scoring in the closing moments after getting past a defender and slotting past Gartside.
