Dan James celebrates after giving in advance to Swansea against Brentford in England Cup
Swansea took his place in the quarter-finals of the FA Cup with a 4-1 win over Brentford.
In the first period in which the Londoners dominated the game, Ollie Watkins scored a goal in the 28th minute after Brentford escaped the counterattack. Neal Maupay set up Watkins to direct his shot on Kristoffer Nordfeldt closely.
Swansea had not had a single shot squared in the first period, after which they had been booed by local fans. Both teams equalized quickly after Bersant Celina's free kick, before the ball was taken over by Luke Daniels, Brentford goalkeeper, for an unfortunate goal.
Dan James then scored a breakaway goal to give Swansea the advantage in the 51st minute. He covered half of the field before starting a Celina solo action, cutting from the left sideline, setting 3-1 up.
The Graham Potter team seems to have had the ball in the net a fourth time when Connor James scored after Daniels made a Celina save, with the difference that this decision is ruled out by a late decision to out-of-court. Thu.
But after Ezri Konsa was excluded from the match for a foul on Dan James, the fourth finally came when James and Celina allied to put George Byers on the net in the 90th minute.
This completed a miserable afternoon for Brentford and his manager, Thomas Frank, who had been booked for holding the ball back to Swansea striker, Oli McBurnie.
Swansea has qualified for the quarter-finals for the first time since the 1963-1964 season.
More soon…
And after?
