Riga doubled their advantage 11 minutes into the second half when Renate Gaugere rose highest to head home from Minami Oi\u2019s corner.<\/p>\n
Glentoran continued to push forward and almost reduced the deficit when Gracie Conway was presented with a good opportunity, but Riga held firm before extending their lead with 10 minutes remaining following an unfortunate own goal.<\/p>\n
The Glens continued to battle until the final whistle and were rewarded in the 84th minute. Demi Vance delivered an excellent cross from the left and Faye Loughran powered a header into the net to score Glentoran\u2019s first goal of this season\u2019s UEFA Women\u2019s Champions League campaign.<\/p>\n
With the Glens committing players forward in stoppage time, Brima added her second goal of the afternoon to complete the scoring.<\/p>\n
