Dergview boss Ivan Sproule has paid tribute to his players, his coaching staff and his physio following their dramatic Irish Cup win over rivals Ballinamallard United at Ferney Park this afternoon.
A titanic tussle went to penalties after goals by the Mallards’ Darragh McBrien and Ross Taheny cancelled out strikes by Matthew Kirk and Cathal Farren.
In the shootout it was the visitors who ultimately held their nerve 9-8 with Graeme Crown hitting the winning spot-kick.
