Glens beat Reds to go top of Women's Premiership
Glentoran put recent cup heartache behind them with a 2-0 win over Cliftonville at Solitude on Tuesday to go top of the Women's Premiership. The east Belfast side were beaten 3-1 by Bohemians in the quarter-finals of the All-Island Cup on Saturday having thrown away a 2-0 half-time advantage against Cliftonville in the Women's League Cup final the week before. Advertisement But they exacted a measure of revenge for the latter of those two defeats when goals in each half from Jessica Foy and Demi Vance ensured a sixth win from six games in league action this season. In a meeting of the two sides who have shared the past five league titles, Foy opened the scoring just past the half-hour mark as she controlled a free-kick floated into the box and calmly slotted home. Vance doubled the visitors' advantage after the break when coming forward off the left flank and finishing well after a move across the box. Kim Turner's side are two points clear of second-place Linfield with Cliftonville a further three back, although the Blues have played a game more.
