Friday’s planned NIFL Premiership game between Glentoran and Carrick Rangers is postponed.
Northern Ireland’s U21 1-0 win over Latvia took place at the Oval on Thursday, but following a pitch inspection on Friday morning, the surface was deemed unplayable following heavy rainfall in Belfast over the past few days.
An announcement on the date of the re-fixture will be made in due course.
“Glentoran Football Club can confirm that, following a pitch inspection, tonight’s Sports Direct Premiership fixture against Carrick Rangers at the BetMcLean Oval has been postponed,” the club said in a statement.
“A new date for the fixture will be confirmed in due course, and we will communicate updated arrangements to supporters as soon as they are available.
“All tickets will remain valid for the rescheduled fixture.”
As it stands, Saturday’s games will proceed as planned with Crusaders set to host Glenavon at Seaview and Portadown welcoming Bangor to Shamrock Park.
