No more goal drought for stylish Swansea

FT: Swansea 3 West Brom 0

Swansea ended their goal drought in style as they claimed a first Premier League win at the Liberty Stadium.

Scott Sinclair ended the hosts 374-minute wait for a top flight goal as he coolly slotted home a 14th minute penalty.

Leroy Lita nodded home his first for the club 10 minutes later before Nathan Dyer secured the points shortly after the break as Brendan Rodgers’ side also keeping a third straight clean sheet at home.

The only concern for the Swans was a nasty head injury suffered by full-back Neil Taylor in an aerial clash with Peter Odemwingie which saw the striker booked.

Odemwingie then went in the book after clattering Taylor in an aerial challenge that left the full-back needing prolonged treatment before departing on a stretcher with a head wound.

There were nine additional minutes added as a result but the hosts saw them out for an historic win.
