Linfield beat Cliftonville to make County Antrim Shield final

Linfield hammer Cliftonville 4-1 at Windsor Park to reach the final of the County Antrim Shield after a game which was marred by sectarian chanting by a section of supporters from both sides.

A George McMullan own goal and strikes by Matthew Tipton, Michael Carvill and Andy Waterworth put the Blues 4-0 in front, before McMullan scored at the right end of the pitch for the Reds.

Linfield will meet the winners of the second semi-final between Crusaders and holders Ballymena United in the final on Tuesday 3 December.
