Nathan Boyle says energetic Finn Harps will fight tooth-and-nail for every point this season.

Harps held Premier Division champions Dundalk to a one-all draw last night as top flight football returned to Ballybofey with a bang.

Keith Cowan had Harps dreaming when he headed home in the first half, but Brian Gartland, 20 minutes from time, earned Dundalk a point.

“We’re a bit gutted the way we conceded,” Boyle told Donegal Daily/Donegal Sport Hub.

“We’re overall happy considering it’s the second game and we’ve a lot of young players.

“It was tough work, but it was worth it.”

Harps, as manager Ollie Horgan was quick to observe afterwards, ‘rode their luck’ at times, but we full value for their share of the spoils – and might well have nicked a win.

Boyle said: “It’s going to be a very tough year. There will be no easy games or none that you can look and think three points. Every game is a tough game and that’s the attitude we’ll take into it.

“If we go into every game with that mindset, we won’t be far away.”
