Swansea City 1-0 West Bromwich Albion: Jay Fulton goal stretches Baggies’ away losing run


Swansea head coach Vitor Matos:

“I think it was a balanced game in the first half. We were in control but not a lot of chances. West Brom were trying to take an advantage from a second ball or a counter or a mistake.

“We had he control and the dominance but only one clear chance I would say.

“Second half West Brom had a spell of seven minutes where we needed properly to defend deep.

“Then this kind of game, with the amount of games in a short period of time, simple things can make a difference and that’s what happened.

“It was a brilliant counter press from Ronnie (Ronald) and even more brilliant from Jay. He can score like this a lot in training. I was really happy for him – he is an important character for us who has a lot of values I like.”

West Brom head coach Ryan Mason:

“Obviously a lot of anger, a lot of frustration. It’s a tough game to analyse. We are not able to make changes because of our squad at the moment. We came up against a team who made four changes and I think in the first half you could feel the energy difference.

“But they didn’t really create anything in the first half and then second half I thought we grew into it, we were by far the better team.

“We had chances but the reality is a lot of our games this season have hinged on moments and being clinical and we weren’t clinical today.

“If you don’t take them, you open yourself open to conceding a worldie from 25 yards. That was the difference.

“The run we have been on is incredible, it’s embarrassing. But if you actually go through those games, we have had a lot of opportunities – probably a lot better than we had today in fairness.”
