Galway still can't win at home as they slumped to second bottom after this damaging defeat to fellow relegation-threatened Waterford.

An own goal from Robbie Hedderman gave Galway the lead when Blues' keeper Dean Delaney's attempted clearance struck his own defender.

But Blues hit back and skipper David Breen headed them level from Cathal Lordan's cross eight minutes into the second half.

Vinny Sullivan then snatched a winner on 73 minutes with a terrific 30-yard volley that flew past keeper Gary Rogers to bring to a morale-boosting end a run of four straight defeats.
