Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup has paid tribute to his side after their victory over Valencia in the Europa League.

The Welsh side stunned the Spanish giants by claiming a 3-0 away victory and their manager was delighted with his team.

"It was a fantastic game. Of course the red card was an influence - but we dominated from the first minute to the last," the club's official Twitter feed quotes him as saying.

"But I'm just so pleased for everyone. Not just the fans, but for the players as well.

"We had a lot of fans here and I'm sure they had a night to remember. To win the first game in the group is a fantastic start."
