Canning: ‘An important three points’

COLERAINE defender Aaron Canning was unsurprisingly delighted with the Bannsiders’ 1-0 win against Linfield…

A late own goal by Mark Stafford was the difference as Oran Kearney’s men remain top of the Danske Bank Premiership.

The victory marked a third successive clean sheet in the league and Canning explained the back four didn’t put a foot wrong in the win against the reigning champions.

The Limavady man admits it has been ‘a pleasure’ to play alongside Adam Mullan in the heart of the defence, but knows the Stripes have to back the win up with successes against Dundela and Dungannon Swifts.
