Reds beat Bannsiders in Solitude thriller

Cliftonville produce a dramatic late comeback to defeat Coleraine 5-3 after extra time and reach the final of the Europa League play-offs.

A James McLaughlin hat-trick, completed with a spectacular overhead kick, had given the Bannsiders a 3-1 lead but Conor McMenamin pulled one back before Ryan Curran forced extra time with a 95th-minute penalty.

Levi Ives then put the Reds in front and McMenamin completed the scoring on a pulsating night at Solitude.
