Alex Neil "delighted" with Norwich City win

Norwich City manager Alex Neil admits that he is "delighted" with his side's 1-0 win over Swansea City in the Premier League.

Alex Neil has admitted that he is "delighted" to see his Norwich City side return to winning ways with a 1-0 victory over Swansea City at Carrow Road.

Jonny Howson scored the only goal in the second half, securing the Canaries' first win in seven matches in the Premier League.

The manager told BBC Sport: "We created the best chances in the game and kept it tight at the back. It certainly wasn't one of our best performances of the season, but it was up there in terms of defensive organisation.

"I thought we were the most threatening team in the game, no question - we could have scored more. I'm delighted for the win and really delighted for the players. Our confidence has never been in question, but we needed to ensure we got points on the board. Next week no-one will talk about the nature of the performance, just that we won the game."

The result leaves Norwich 15th in the Premier League table.
