Swansea City picked up their first win of the Vitor Matos era after seeing off Oxford United at the Swansea.com Stadium.
Marko Stamenic opened the scoring by heading home his first goal as a Swansea player, before Josh Tymon’s stunning volley doubled the lead on the stroke of half-time.
Here’s how the players rated on the day.
Lawrence Vigouroux 7
Didn’t have an awful lot to do for much of the afternoon, but made two really good saves late on.
Ethan Galbraith 8
Moved to right-back, but was as influential as ever. Felt like he was everywhere at times. Subbed.
Ben Cabango 7
Solid for much of the game. Slightly shaky in possession at times, but grew into things nicely.
Cameron Burgess 7
Won everything in the air. An assured outing.
Josh Tymon 8 – STAR MAN
Earned an assist and scored a brilliant goal of his own. A great day at the office.
Goncalo Franco 7
Showed signs of getting back to his best here. No player made as many tackles. Steely showing in the middle. Subbed.
Marko Stamenic 7
Took his goal well and was competitive in the middle. A good outing.
Melker Widell 7
Pressed really well, but was a little rusty in possession on occasion. Subbed.
Ronald 7
Looked lively down the right. An energetic performance.
Jisung Eom 7
Bombed up and down the left all afternoon. Linked up nicely with Tymon too. Subbed.
Zan Vipotnik 7
Put himself about well and did well to stretch the defence. Subbed.
