Crusaders 4-2 Glentoran
On a weekend in which half the Dankse Bank Premiership fixtures fell victim to the wintry conditions Crusaders weathered an early Glentoran storm to fight back and win 4-2 at Seaview this afternoon. The Glens raced into a deserved 2-0 lead with a Curtis Allen double but were pegged back with two goals just before the interval and Crusaders then dominated from that point. Alan Kernaghan made three changes to the team that lost on New Year’s Day at Dungannon with Steven Gordon missing out through suspension while Jonathan Smith and Niall Henderson dropped to the bench.
