Garry Monk nets a stoppage-time winner as Swansea City come from behind to beat Crawley Town in the League Cup third round.

Swansea City produced a late comeback to remain in the League Cup at the expense of League One Crawley Town.

Michael Laudrup's men had looked to be heading for a shock exit with 16 minutes remaining, however Danny Graham's third goal of the season levelled the game before Garry Monk sealed a memorable victory in stoppage time.

The Swans opened the scoring on 27 minutes when Michu beat goalkeeper Paul Jones with a superb long-range strike.

Josh Simpson equalised for Crawley with a low 25-yard effort on the stroke of half time and Hope Akpan completed the turnaround on 62 minutes, stylishly stroking home Jonathan Forte's low cross from the left.

Crawley had been good value for their lead, but it evaporated on 74 minutes when Graham nodded Dwight Tiendalli's cross into the net from six yards.

With both teams preparing themselves for extra time, Monk, who had not featured for Swansea since April, attacked a floated Wayne Routledge cross and planted his header beyond Jones from 12 yards.
