Swans show super swagger

Bradford 0 Swansea 5

This was always a day when landmarks were going to be set — after all, League Two Bradford were hoping to become the first club from the fourth tier ever to win a major trophy, not just in England but anywhere in Europe.

But in the end, having had goalkeeper Matt Duke sent off in the second half, the team who knocked out Aston Villa, Arsenal and Wigan met their match as Swansea swept to a victory that guarantees them Europa League football next season and guarantees Laudrup will be the centre of attention whenever a manager at a big club is sacked in future.
