Two debutants for Finn Harps in Longford clash

Finn Harps have two new faces in their starting eleven for tonight’s First Division game against Longford Town.

Hot on the heels of the addition of Maltese international defender Jacob Borg, who takes his place in the team, Harps also give a debut to former Waterford United midfielder Tunmise Sobowale.

Sobowale’s capture was confirmed by Harps this evening.

The 19-year-old from Waterford was most recently with Alicante-based Hércules FC having played with both Shelbourne and Waterford United.

Known as ‘Timmie’, Sobowale, played under Ollie Horgan for the Republic of Ireland Schools team.

27-year-old Borg, meanwhile, played for Malta in a 2013 friendly against Azerbaijan and arrives at Harps from Balzan Youths.

“We needed to get a couple of players in to boost the squad numbers as there are a lot of tough games ahead for us,” Horgan said.
