Swansea City interim manager Leon Britton says that he is "delighted" with the point his side earned against Crystal Palace on Saturday.

Swansea City interim manager Leon Britton has said that he is "delighted" with the point his side earned against Crystal Palace on Saturday.

Britton, who is a temporary replacement for former boss Paul Clement, saw striker Jordan Ayew equalise against the Eagles in his first match in charge at the Liberty Stadium.

Luka Milivojevic had given Palace the lead, but Ayew's leveller was enough to see the game end in a stalemate.

"I'm very proud of that performance, if any team was to get a winner it was us and the players have given me everything they had," Britton told BBC Sport.

"I told Jordan to get us a goal, we needed fresh legs to give us a spark and Jordan got the goal and he was really lively. Obviously he'll be disappointed not to start but you can see Jordan has the right attitude.

"The fans are great wit me, when I've been a player and today as a manager and I'm always appreciative of that. Nothing has changed and I'm delighted we have the point today but I'm not interested in the job full time."

Swansea will now prepare to take on Liverpool on Boxing Day after the Reds' 3-3 draw with Arsenal on Friday.
