Swansea 2 (Vipotnik 20’ pen, 45’ pen) - Middlesborough 2 ( Bangura 12’, Conway 75’ pen)
Young Sam Parker in at right back, overall a good display, but left exposed without cover a few times.
Middlesbrough looked a class side and they gave us a lesson in passing and possession. Fortunately for us their usual scorers were missing. We had two pens and a third turned down, all valid, but theirs was dubious and a levelling up by the ref.
Vipotnik now up to 20 league goals for the season and surely will be on his way in the summer even with his new four year contract. He could have had a hat-trick but skied his shot when well placed.
We deserved the draw for such a brave defensive display and could have even won late on when Cullen’s goal bound shot was saved full stretch by their goalie.
