Outstanding performance
Swansea City•AttackerSwansea City turned the game on its head in a dramatic second half, overturning Jacob Wright's first-half opener to claim a 2-1 win built on relentless attacking pressure. The hosts dominated possession (57%) and were far more clinical, converting from fewer clear-cut chances while Norwich, despite matching them in dangerous attacks, couldn't find a second goal after Moussa Yeo's leveler. Adam Idah was the game's pivotal figure, netting the winner just four minutes after seeing another effort saved, with Norwich's resistance finally breaking under sustained pressure. For Swansea, the comeback win is a timely boost amid a congested Championship table, while Norwich will rue missed chances - including a goal-line clearance - that could have secured at least a point.
