Finn Harps 1-0 Cobh Ramblers
McGrenaghan 58
A Paddy McGrenaghan strike put Finn Harps top of the eircom First Division table as they ruined Stephen Henderson’s first match in charge of Cobh Rambers.
McGrenaghan's shot from the edge of the box somehow squeezed under the body of 'keeper David Hennessey and rolled into the net to break the deadlock to give Harps a deserved victory as they missed a number of chances early on with the best being an Eloka Asokuh header that hit the bar.
Cobh might also have scored in the 57th minute when Keiran O'Reilly shot into the side netting from close range while Alan Keely cleared another O’Reilly effort off the line before Ramblers were reduced to ten men in the last minute when Robert Brosnan was sent off.
Teams:
Finn Harps: Gallagher, Asokuh, Minnock, Boyle, Keely, Mohan, Crossam, McGrenaghan, Breen, McHugh, Gorman.
Subs: Connolly for Breen (62 mins), Funston (66 mins), Ferry for Asokuh (85 mins).
