Glenavon thought they had taken a second minute lead, however, when Nathan McConnell slotted home a Gerard McMahon ball only for it to be ruled out offside.

Larne might have broken the deadlock themselves on 25 minutes with a Julian Ward effort which flew over the bar.

However the opening - and only - goal arrived 13 minutes later when Liam Mullan outpaced Barry Reid before cutting the ball back for Polish midfielder Tomaz Grzegorczyk to fire home from six yards.
