Glentoran 0-3 Crusaders

Mon, 02/10/2017 - 22:45

Glentoran delivered a disappointing and lifeless performance on Monday night losing 3-0 at home to Crusaders. Pre match saw a large crowd and an air of excitement around The Oval with the Sky Sports cameras in attendance but the night soon fell flat for the home side as Crusaders dominated. Gary Haveron named the same 11 that drew with Coleraine 9 days previously and Crusaders, coming off consecutive home league draws, made two changes to their side with Heatley and Carvill replacing Glackin and Forsythe.
