Two goals in the space of two second-half minutes proved crucial as Swansea City picked up three points at Carrow Road.

Arturo Lupoli had given the Canaries the lead just before the half-hour but Jason Scotland levelled with a matter of minutes left to play in the first period.

The visitors were three one to the good by the 48th minute as midfielders Darren Pratley and Ferrie Bodde put the Swans in control. Angel Rangel's own goal set-up a nervy finish but Roberto's side held on for the win.

The Swans keep to the same 16 that triumphed over Watford at the Liberty Stadium last Sunday.

Leon Britton was the only major doubt ahead of the long trip to Norfolk but he's passed a late fitness and slots back into midfield alongside Ferrie Bodde and Darren Pratley.

The referee got this game underway and it was route one straight from the kick-off by the visitors as Ferrie Bodde's long ball forward fell to Jason Scotland and the striker came close with a volley just wide of the target, with only 20 seconds on the clock!

Norwich responded instantly and with three minutes on the clock former Arsenal youngster Arturo Lupoli won a free-kick wide on the right, and as the ball was floated into the area the Italian met with it with his head, fortunately sending it wide of the target.

The Canaries' on loan front-man, Leroy Lita, also came close with a header on 9 minutes, a looping effort that dipped just over the top of Dimi Konstantopoulos' goal, while Lupoli sent another header off target from David Bell's free-kick moments later.

And they continued their aerial onslaught as we approached the quarter of an hour mark as Lita was left unmarked six-yards from goal to head over the top.

The visitors were feeling the pressure and despite a deflected shot wide from Ferrie Bodde the boys in white were having a lot of defending to do. With 27 minutes on the clock Norwich had their first proper shot at goal as Lupoli shot across the face of goal, and moments later they had an ever better opportunity with Lita latching onto Matty Pattison's ball to shoot straight at Konstantopoulos.

But all of their pressure was finally converted into an opening goal on 28 minutes with Arturo Lupoli firing low beyond the Greek 'keeper.

Norwich pressed for a second but it was the visiting side that had the next best chance with Canaries' 'keeper David Marshall forced into tipping over Jordi Gomez's long-range shot, and from the resulting corner the Swans had the ball in the back of the net.

Mark Gower's corner came in and as it deflected off the knee of John Kennedy defender Ashley Williams connected and after it took a further deflection off the arm of David Bell it trickled into the net. But the goal was disallowed by assistant referee Amy Rayner for offside; Jason Scotland did look to be in an offside position but the Trinidadian striker wasn't interfering with play.

But the Swans did have a 'legitimate' goal in the back of the net with just two minutes remaining - Jordi Gomez and Angel Rangel linked-up down the right-hand side and the latter played a low ball across the face of goal where Jason Scotland connected to bundle home an equaliser.

David Bell came agonizingly close to restoring Norwich's lead 60 seconds later with a low strike that beat Konstantopoulos but bounce back off the post.

Half-Time: Norwich 1 Swans 1

The Swans made a storming start to the second-half as they scored twice in as many minutes to take a 3-1 lead!

Darren Pratley put Roberto's side in front within 90 seconds of the re-start as his flick from Jordi Gomez's corner, with the aid of a deflection from David Bell, and a third went in moments later after the home side gave the ball away inside their own half. Mark Gower capitalised and fed Gomez on the edge of the box, his neat flick set-up Ferrie Bodde who slid the ball under the legs of Marshall.

And it could have been four on 51 minutes; Gomez was given acres of space just outside the box and he let fly with a shot that fell just the wrong side of the post.

The Swans' two-goal advantage, though, was cut on the hour mark as Mark Fotherinham's threaded pass into the area was deflected into net by Angel Rangel who tried to clear the ball.

Fede Bessone and Mark Gower both linked-up well on 67 minutes, the former winning a corner, and from the resulting flag-kick Gower and Britton combined to set up Angel Rangel; the defender found space on the edge of the area and fired a low strike towards goal which deflected wide for another corner.

Roberto made his first change of the afternoon with just over 10 minutes remaining as Gorka Pintado came on to replace left winger Mark Gower.

Norwich pressed for an equaliser but the travelling Swans remained strong and held on for a crucial win on the road.
