Harps rest their hopes on McHugh

FINN HARPS will look to their dynamic young striker Kevin McHugh to help take them into the semi-final of the FAI Carlsberg Cup when they play Cork City at Turner’s Cross today (7.45pm).

McHugh, one of the most highly-rated young talents in the National League, could only play a substitute’s role for 10 minutes in Saturday’s first match against Cork in Ballybofey but forced ’keeper Michael Devine to make the save of the match.

Devine was slightly off his line when McHugh let one fly from 35 yards seconds before the final whistle and Devine highlighted an outstanding personal performance by turning the shot over the bar.
