Reserves end season in style

Posted on: Tue 28 Apr 2009

Swansea City's second string ended their totesport.com Combination season in dominant fashion with a 7-0 victory at Forest Green Rovers.

Three goals in the first-half and a further four in the second period ensured that Colin Pascoe's side finished above the Gloucestershire outfit in sixth position.

Full-back Matty Collins skippered the side at The New Lawn while there was a place in attack for young Irish striker Ian Daly who arrived on trial from Manchester City.

It took just seven minutes for the visitors to break the deadlock as 18-year-old Daly supplied Chris Jones (below) who made it 1-0 with a chip over the top of Alex Hards, while Dion Chambers added a second six minutes later from close-range.

Waris Majeed struck the crossbar for Rovers mid-way through the half but Kerry Morgan made it three on the stroke of half time with an angled shot after latching on to Collins' cross-field pass.

It was more of the same in the second period as defender Andrew Sheppard converted a Morgan cross into his own net on 55 minutes while Daly turned in a Jazz Richards flick two minutes later.

Morgan used his pace to great effect to race on to the end of a Chris Jones pass to score a sixth from outside the area 12 minutes from the end while substitute Ben Davies added a seventh and final goal on 82 minutes.

Swans: David Cornell; Matty Collins (C), Steven Berry, Jamie Grimes, Kyle Graves; Dion Chambers, Jazz Richards, Keiran Howard; Chris Jones, Kerry Morgan, Ian Daly.
