The fixture between Swansea City and Norwich City took a slow start as both sides were eyeing maximum points to increase their chances of Premier league action next season.
Norwich City who went away to Swansea City at the Liberty Stadium were a game ahead of Swansea and needed a win to keep their position at the top intact as inform Brentford remain 3rd on the log with 51 points and two games in hand.
Swansea City during the opening minutes of the first half tried to break the Norwich defensive line but was very difficult to do as the visitors took to attack them on the break with the pace and skill of Todd Cantwell.
Swansea City were able to manage the game and kept pushing for the opener. In the 42nd minute of the first half, Ghanaian international Andre ‘Dede’ Ayew provided the magical touch connecting to a pass from Jake Bidwell to put Swansea City in the lead.
Steve Coopers men on the night were efficient as they had no shot off target, though their possession was low, Swansea City kept their composure and lead until the break.
The time with their gaffer during the recess surely had and made a quick impact on the team as it took Swansea City three minutes into the second half to add a second for the night. Conor Hourihane latched on a ball from Jay Fulton and that was enough to see Swansea grab all three points with the potential of going top of the table.
