CELINA SENDS SWANS INTO THE LAST EIGHT

18 FEBRUARY 2019 13:15

Sensational individual goals from E.G. Lewis Group player-sponsor Bersant Celina and Daniel James capped off a second-half comeback against EFL Championship opposition - Brentford as the Swans booked their place in the FA Cup quarter-finals.

Graham Potter's side trailed 1-0 at the break on Sunday but a stirring second-half display saw the hosts score four unanswered goals to book their place in the quarter-finals.

Celina's free-kick got the Swans back on level terms three minutes after the break, with his strike clattering the post before bouncing over the line via the back of keeper Luke Daniels.

A stunning solo goal from Daniel James edged the Swans ahead before a sublime individual effort - Celina, marked tightly down the left flank, used his wizardry to beat his first marker before then outwitting a second challenge before looking up and curling a well-placed effort across Brentford’s goalkeeper Daniels and into the far corner.

George Byers added a fourth late on after Celina teed him up.

It means the Swans enter back-to-back FA Cup quarter-finals for the first time in 92 years, with Potter's men eagerly awaiting Monday night's draw
