Larne's Danske Bank Premiership title hopes were dealt another blow as they slipped to back-to-back defeats for the first time this season, going down 2-0 at home to Coleraine.
Just three days after losing to Linfield the Invermen were second best against the impressive Bannsiders, who recorded their third clean sheet in a row.
They were resolute in defence and impressive in attack as first half goals from Matthew Shevlin and Conor McKendry sealed the points for Oran Kearney's men.
