Tiernan Lynch believes goals will come as long as chances continue to flow

Tiernan Lynch believes the goals will come for Larne if they keep creating the chances.

The Invermen picked up their 16th league win of the season in the 2-0 victory over Portadown on Tuesday night.

And although Lynch was delighted with the three points his only criticism was that they did not win by a greater margin.

But the Larne boss wasn't too despondent as he feels the goals will flow as long as the service is there.

"The most important thing was to come out of the game with three points, that's exactly what we needed and what we got," Lynch told Larne TV.

"We're probably a bit disappointed we weren't a bit more clinical in front of goal, but credit to the lads their workrate was excellent and I thought our work off the ball was superb.

"We are creating the chances and getting into the areas, so the goals will come.

"At the other end it was another clean sheet, which is pleasing."

It is a trip to Newry Showgrounds for Larne on Sunday afternoon as they bid to keep pace with league leaders Cliftonville.

Lynch says his side will be up for the battle on what is a difficult surface.

"I'm led to believe that it probably won't be a game that will be free-flowing as I don't think the pitch is in the best condition," he said.

"In my opinion though this team is built to play both ways and we'll go down there and if it needs to be a fight we'll put the fight up, and if we have to play then we'll hopefully do that also."
