Swansea City win second game of weekend

Swansea City won their second pre-season match in as many days this afternoon with a 5-1 victory over Excelsior Maassluis in the Netherlands.

The hosting Dutch outfit started the brighter of the two sides and made the most of their domination when Sten Wever intercepted a back pass from Ben Davies to convert the ball into the back of the net.

However, goals from Roland Lamah and Rory Donnelly in the 18th and 28th minute respectively ensured that the Swans went into the break 2-1 up.

Alejandro Pozuelo then lobbed them into a 3-1 lead shortly after the restart, before Kenji Gorre got his name on the scoresheet as he volleyed in a cross from Michu.

The scoring was concluded in the closing stages by Nathan Dyer, who added a fifth from close range.
