Nice touch
Player-boss Hamilton hands his medal to Declan 'Fabio' O'Brien, the forward left out of the Glenavon matchday squad.
Hamilton is the first Glenavon manager to win the Irish Cup twice.
CHAMPAGNE MOMENT
Celebration time for Glenavon. They deserved the victory and Linfield will be disappointed with their showing. Stephen Baxter says: "Linfield started like a house on fire and had chances. "But once Glenavon weathered that, they grew and ending up bossing the game."

Quote Message: There was no better time for me to score. We were a bit sloppy in the first 15 minutes but after that we controlled the game. They did not have many clear chances and we managed to take ours. It is a pleasure to play in this team. from Kevin Braniff (Glenavon) Man of the match

FULL-TIME
That's it. Glenavon beat Linfield 2-0 to lift the Irish Cup for the seventh time in their history, and for the second time in three seasons under player-manager Gary Hamilton.
SUBSTITUTION
Glenavon's Daniel Kearns on for Joel Cooper
MAN OF THE MATCH
Ballymena boss David Jeffrey, who won the Irish Cup seven times during his time as Linfield manager, chooses Kevin Braniff as the man of the match

SUBSTITUTION
Just like he did in the 2014 final, Glenavon player-manager Gary Hamilton comes on as a late replacement. Eoin Bradley makes way for the boss.
CLOSE!
Kevin Braniff is clear through and shoots wide with only the keeper to beat. That would have been that.
Corner count
Linfield 8 Glenavon 1
When I played in the cubs, corners counted in the event of a draw. Not today, though!
SUBSTITUTION
Niall Quinn comes on for Jimmy Callacher in the Linfield team
YELLOW CARD
Glenavon defender Simon Kelly goes into the book for a foul, quickly followed by Linfield's Stephen Lowry
YELLOW CARD
Glenavon's Joel Cooper is booked for diving in the penalty area - and deservedly so. If a foul had been given it would have been an unjust spot-kick and Blues defender Sean Ward would have been off. Ref Hetherington got it spot on
SUBSTITUTION
Glenavon skipper Ciaran Martyn, 36 and on a yellow card, makes way for Mark Sykes
SUBSTITUTION
It's just not happening for David Healy's Linfield and their frustration is starting to show. Kirk Millar has come on as sub with Matthew Clarke the man replaced.

GOAL
Glenavon 2-0 Linfield
Andy Hall scores to put Glenavon 2-0 up. The ball fell to him on the penalty spot and after one touch, he shoots left-footed. Linfield defender Matthew Clarke tried to block and it may well have come off him. Definitely a Hall goal and Linfield are in big trouble.

HALF-TIME
Braniff's goal comes just before the break. Linfield will try to respond in the second half to stop Glenavon winning the Irish Cup for the seventh time in their history.
