Goals from Sean Houston and Ciaran O'Connor saw Finn Harps' come from behind at Richmond Park to lift themselves three points clear of the relegation places with a first victory of the SSE Airtricity League Premier Division season.

A third defeat from four games means St Pat's remain in the bottom three as their search for a first win of the campaign continues.

The home side did start much the better, though, gratefully availing of some poor play by Harps to snatch a soft lead goal after just three minutes.
