Irish Premiership: Jim Magilton's Cliftonville and Linfield make winning starts as Newry also win
Jim Magilton's reign as Cliftonville manager got off to a winning start as his side eased to a 3-0 home victory over Glenavon in the Irish Premiership.Linfield also began their league campaign with a victory as they beat Dungannon Swifts 3-2 at Stangmore Park, with Daniel Finlayson sent off late on.Saturday's three Premiership games came after title holders Larne, Crusaders and Coleraine won their matches on Friday night.
It took just six minutes for Magilton to see his first goal as Reds boss with his captain Gormley racing clear of the Glenavon defence to latch onto Ronan Doherty's inch-perfect pass and expertly lob the ball over Rory Brown. Debutant Stewart doubled the hosts' lead 15 minutes later, poking home into an open goal after Brown initially saved from Ben Wilson.
Things went from bad to worse for Gary Hamilton's side three minutes before the interval when Gormley got his second of the game, lifting a lovely chip over Brown after Doherty had again found the Reds' top scorer in space with a curling through ball. The intensity of the second half failed to match that of the first with neither side able to muster a goalscoring opportunity until the 84th minute when visiting substitute Aaron Prendergast had a shot well saved by former Derry City goalkeeper Nathan Gartside.
