Former Derry City player Mark Timlin scored on his debut as Finn Harps beat Bray Wanderers 3-2 at the Carlisle Grounds to boost the Donegal club's chances of staying in the Premier Division.

In form Eddie Dsane put Harps ahead on 24 minutes before Timlin, who signed during the week from Derry, fired in a second from a free just before the break.

Aaron Greene pulled one back for Bray before Harps' recent signing Ibraham Keita made it 3-1 on 84 minutes.

Ryan Brennan got Bray's second goal on 89 minutes but Harps held on for their first win of the season over a Bray side that have now lost four on the trot.
