Derry City came from behind to defeat Sligo Rovers 2-1 on the opening night of the Premier Division season at the Ryan McBride Brandywell Stadium.

Jad Hakiki had given Sligo a 1-0 lead in the first half, while Rovers' goalkeeper Sam Sargeant was in inspired form to keep their lead intact.
He was eventually undone by a terrific strike from Alex Bannon in the 81st minute before Thomas secured all three points for the Candystripes.
