Larne recorded their first win of the season in style with a 4-0 victory over Portadown on Friday night.
Matty Lusty was alert to break the offside trap and fire Larne ahead midway through the first half, while Mark Randall fired home from a well-worked corner before the half-time break.
Randall made it 3-0 early in the second half, converting from the penalty spot after Benji Magee was fouled. Tiarnan O’Connor then rounded off the scoring just before the hour mark, again scoring from the spot after Baris Altintop was penalised for a handball.
