Listen: ‘More positives than negatives’ for McHugh as Harps U15s lose to Sligo

Kevin McHugh believes his Finn Harps Under-15s will learn much from their opening night defeat in the SSE Airtricity Under-15 League last night.

Harps lost 3-2 to Sligo at the New Camp Complex in Killygordon last night in their first contest at this level in their inaugural Under-15 League outing. 

Harps took the lead through Conor Black but Sligo’s Cillian Heaney struck twice in two minutes before Ciaran Jennings added a third.

Harps’ Luke Rudden pulled one back, but they were unable to draw level.

“The occasion got to some of them and that’s all about learning too,” McHugh said.

“It was a great advert for under-15 national league football. It was real end-to-end football. It was disappointing to lose and get caught out twice with the long ball, but there were more positives than negatives.”
