Dungannon Swifts have advanced to the Irish Premiership play-off semi-finals following a victory over Carrick Rangers, according to BBC Sport's Irish football coverage.
The result ends Carrick's involvement in the promotion and relegation play-off rounds and keeps the Swifts in contention to preserve their top-flight status, or to push for a higher finish, depending on where each club entered the play-off bracket.
The Irish Premiership play-offs serve as one of the division's most consequential series of fixtures, determining which clubs continue in the top flight the following season and which drop into the Championship. For clubs on either side of the Premiership's lower reaches, the stakes in these ties are considerable — a single defeat enough to end a campaign on difficult terms.
Further details of the scoreline, goalscorers and match incidents had not been included in the wire report available to Touchline at the time of publication. A fuller account of the tie is expected to follow via BBC Sport Northern Ireland.
Swifts will now await confirmation of their semi-final opponents as the play-off bracket takes shape.
