Hide AdPatching’s goal at the start of the second half was no doubt the cream of the crop and admittedly one of the Englishman’s finest strikes in the red and white Candy Stripes.
The midfielder began the move with a free-kick which picked out Michael Duffy on the left wing and when the ball worked its way to Paul McMullan, the Scotsman laid it into the path of Patching who drifted into space before firing it high into the top corner – a goal worthy of winning any match.
Derry have yet to lose a match when Patching was on the scoresheet and that impressive statistic remained intact as Danny Mullen netted his third goal of the season before Duffy put the icing on the cake with a deflected effort off Daryl Horgan.
