Irish Cup: Larne could face Glentoran in quarter-finals

Irish Premiership leaders Larne will play either Glentoran or Drumaness Mills in the quarter-finals of the Irish Cup next month.
The Inver Reds have been runners-up six times in the competition without ever lifting the trophy, but advanced to the last eight thanks to a 2-0 win away to Warrenpoint Town on Saturday.
Glentoran were due to take on Drumaness Mills at the Oval in the sixth round but the game was postponed because of a waterlogged pitch.
The game will now take place on 17 February with the winners hosting Larne on either Friday, 6 March or Saturday, 7 March.
Holders Dungannon Swifts, who came from behind to beat Portadown in the sixth round, will host Harland and Wolff Welders in the last eight with the east Belfast side having eased past Gary Hamilton’s Ballymacash Rangers on Saturday.
Limavady United’s reward for beating Premiership champions Linfield on Friday night will be a home quarter-final against Coleraine who required extra time to advance past Carrick on Saturday.
Cliftonville, Irish Cup winners in 2024, will travel to Loughgall in the last eight after Jonny Addis’ sweetly struck free-kick deep into injury time saw them knock out Glenavon in the sixth round.
Loughgall came through the only all-Championship tie of the sixth round when they beat Institute 2-1.
