A Ronan Coughlan penalty in added time rescued a point for Sligo Rovers in Friday night’s SSE Aitricity League Premier Division game against Finn Harps in a 1-1 draw at the Showgrounds.
Sean Boyd’s 42 minute header had given Harps a deserved lead.
Romeo Parkes had a goal disallowed for offside early in the second-half.
Harps produced a gutsy display for much of the game – but as the contest ticked into injury-time, Coughlan was up-ended by Danny O’Reilly in the penalty area, which resulted in the defender receiving a second yellow card.
Coughlan picked himself up to convert the spot-kick and secure a point for the home side.
