Sean Boyd scored a last-minute winner for Finn Harps on Friday night in Ballybofey to give Ollie Horgan's side a dramatic 3-2 win against Waterford United and move them off the bottom of the SSE Airtricity League Premier Division table.
An eventful game saw Waterford manager Alan Matthews sent to the stand in the closing stages. Before that, Waterford’s Aaron Drinan had opened the scoring for the vistiors. Then, two goals from Mikey Place — from a free-kick and a penalty — gave Harps a 2-1 lead at half-tiem.
That’s the way it stayed until the 89th minute when Damien Delaney knocked home from close range to make the score 2-2 and it looked as though Harps would be stuck to the table’s bottom for another week at least.
That was until Seán Boyd popped up in the final minute of the game to give Harps all three points.
