TWO goals inside a minute just before the hour mark swung this CIS Insurance Cup tie in favour of visitors Coleraine as Armagh City slumped to a second straight home reversal.

The Bannsiders moved in front after just three minutes when Gordon Patton pounced on a loose ball after Johnny Cowan was caught in possession to fire past the advancing James Millar.

City levelled on 16 minutes, however, when Shea Campbell set Conor Forker up to beat Davy O'Hare.

That was how it stayed until the 54th minute when, from 22 yards, Stephen Beatty curled a sweetly executed free-kick over the City wall and into the top left corner.

And, on 56 minutes, it was 3-1 and a second for Patton with an angled shot from the edge of the area into the roof of the net.
