Benny Igehon makes first Finn Harps appearance in USL

FORMER Sligo Rovers striker Benny Igiehon made his first appearance for Finn Harps today.

Igiehon (pictured by Joe Boland, North West Newspix) started for the Harps Reserves in a 2-1 loss to Cockhill Celtic in the bmcsports.ie Ulster Senior League.

Igiehon started up front alongside Cameron Saul, who was on the senior team bench last night.

Igiehon played for Sligo during the second half of the 2017 season, scoring two goals.

The much-travelled Igehon has also lined out for Scarborough Athletic, Boston United, Alfreton Town and Larne FC.

The 26-year-old Englishman was registered with Harps in advance of last Friday’s game against Cork City, but has yet to feature on a senior match-day squad.

Stephen Duffy and Laurence Toland netted for Cockhill today in Strabane with Ronan Gallagher pulling a goal back for Harps.

While the Tommy Canning-managed Harps piled on the pressure, they were unable to draw level.
