Finn Harps took a big step towards booking themselves a spot in the promotion-relegation play-off with a draw against relegation rivals UCD last night.

A 0-0 draw at Finn Park keeps Harps six points ahead of the Students who, with three games to go, look set for a swift return to Division One.

Harps had the bulk of the chances, but couldn’t find a goal.

And they were indebted to goalkeeper Mark Anthony McGinley, whose excellent save prevented Yousef Mahdy from a goal for the visitors.
