Swansea bring down Man United

Excited Gomis after the winning goal

Swansea downed Manchester United in the Barclays Premier league match this evening, coming from behind to clinch the maximum three points.

The Welsh team won the match 2-1, their third straight victory over the Louis Van Gaal coached team.

After the Swans had edged a goalless first half, United took the lead early in the second as Luke Shaw’s marauding run and cross set up Juan Mata to blast in from close range.

Andre Ayew headed the hosts level after a swift counter-attack as United conceded their first league goal of the season.

Ayew then provided a marvellous pass for Bafetimbi Gomis, whose shot squirmed under Sergio Romero to give Swansea a third straight win against United.
