Jordan Stewart came off the bench to head home an 88th equaliser for Linfield as they snatched a 1-1 draw - and a vital point - at Larne.

Navid Nasseri celebrates scoring the opener for Larne

Former Blues star Navid Nasseri had given Larne the lead just minutes previously after he, too, had come on from the dugout.

But then Stewart popped up with the header from a superb cross from ex Larne player Marty Donnelly - to seal the point.

A win would have taken Linfield to the top of the table but they stay second as a reulst - just a point behind Cliftonville.

Larne are fourth - a further 3 points behind the leaders.
