A second-half collapse cost Monaghan United their chances of a League Cup upset over Galway United at Kingspan Century Park.
The First Division side led 2-1 at half-time, a brace from Willie Doyle - one a cool first time volley and the other a close-range finish - being punctuated by Alan Murphy's equaliser for Galway.
But three goals by a resurgent Galway within 17 minutes of the resumption decided the game.
Wesley Charles headed home John Lester's free-kick after 47 minutes, and the visitors went in front when Lester's deflected free-kick left Darren McQuaid helpless in the Monaghan goal in the 61st minute.
But the United keeper was guilty of a bad error a minute later when he allowed Barry Moran's speculative effort from distance to spin out of his grasp and into the net.
