Finn Harps won Friday night’s promotion/relegation play-off in Ballybofey with a spirted 2-0 win on the night, to beat Drogheda United 2-1 on aggregate.
Harry Ashcroft’s goal in the second period of extra-time proved to be the decisive moment.
Earlier, Mark Russell’s goal have brought Harps level on aggregate (Drogheda had won the first leg 1-0 last Monday).
In a nerve-jangling extra-time, Australian Ascroft popped up two minutes into the second period to force the ball home and keep Harps in top flight football for another season.
Sligo native Raff Cretaro, who played an influential role on Friday night’s win, spoke to Ocean FM Sport after Friday night’s win.
