Pat Hoban also had a first-half header disallowed by the Andorran official but when Mark Connolly scored on 38 minutes it looked as if Derry were primed to overturn the two-goal deficit from the first-leg.
When Hoban pounced on 57 minutes the tie was level but Derry were unable to get over the line.
With the game looking set for a penalty shootout there was one final twist with De Haro’s strike in extra-time.
