A Southampton analyst was caught spying on Middlesbrough practice, putting the playoff tie’s outcome into uncertainty.
Saturday's game between the two was as tight as you could expect, but a late mix-up in the Boro defence gave Ben Osborn the chance to tap home and give Stockport the edge heading into the second leg. Back at Edgeley Park, Dave Challinor's men will be confident of securing a spot at Wembley, but anything can happen in the play-offs.
St Pat's have taken the lead just before the hour mark as Zach Elbouzedi makes it 2-1. They deserve the moment as the hosts have been much the better side since the restart, but from a Waterford perspective, it is another poor goal to give away as Jordan Houston makes a mess of his clearance, allowing Elbouzedi in to pounce for his first goal since February 27.
