Finn Harps 3-2 Limerick FC
Finn Harps got the better of Limerick in a cracking tussle in Ballybofey tonight.
Harps took the lead in the seventh minute when Ciaran O’Connor poked home, but Lee-J Lynch levelled matters two minutes later.
Danny Morrissey put the home side back in front, and Caolan McAleer made it 3-1 in the 40th minute.
Harps weren’t overly troubled in the second half, but Limerick set up a grandstand finish when Paul O’Conor scored with three minutes of normal time remaining.
Morrissey was dismissed in injury-time, before Dean Clarke almost equalised at the death.
However, Harps held on and move from the bottom of the table up to eighth.
