Review:
Swansea started very well and took a desrved lead after just 8 minutes with a great goal that left our right side looking poor. Sammy Ameobi equalised with an even better goal from the edge of the area but then Swansea were awarded a very dubious penalty which was (in my opinion) illegally taken when Ayew halted his run-up. Ameobi equalised again with an even better goal from 20 yeards to get us a point and even closer to the playoffs. Kyle Naughton was sent off for a deserved straight red after catching Alex Mighten with 8 minutes to go but they held on.
Stats:
Originally scheduled for April 13, but postponed due to Coronavirus
Only the fifth time we've played a game on July 15th. All other games were pre-season friendlies.
Due to coronavirus, the game was played behind closed doors so the official attendance was zero
