Cowan swoops as nine-man Harps edge Rovers in fiery affair
Keith Cowan’s ninth-minute strike proved enough for the Donegal side on an afternoon they had Michael Funston and Sean McCarron, as well as manager Ollie Horgan, sent off. Funston had played a part in the winning goal when his cross was laid off by Josh Mailey into the path of Cowan to beat goalkeeper Conor O’Malley.
Hoops midfielder Ryan Doolin and Funston then saw red on 26 minutes following a skirmish on the ground, while Emeka Onwubiko was denied an equaliser by a goal-line clearance.
