Swansea back on track in Adran Premier

Must read

Swansea City Women boss Jamie Sherwood hailed his side’s Stok Racecourse response after a key win in the Adran Premier.

The Swans were left frustrated eight days ago when they were held to a goalless draw by Barry Town United at the Swansea.Com Stadium.

But playing at a major ground for the second successive week, Swansea rallied with a 3-2 win at Wrexham to continue an unbeaten start to the season and leave them third in the table.

“It’s a massive three points,” said Sherwood. “We asked for a reaction from last week and I think we’ve seen that.

“We stuck to our identity and the way we want to play football, we’ve come to a tough ground and played some really nice football in tough conditions against a tough team.

“I wouldn’t call it a bounce back, I would say it was a continuation of what we did. We didn’t do anything different to last week, we just took our chances and scored goals.

“It’s really pleasing to come to a ground steeped with history and score three goals on our travels, that’s an amazing thing to do.”

Stacey John-Davis and Jess Williams were on target for Swansea, while Wrexham’s Katie Sharp turned Chloe Chivers’ free-kick into her own net.

The Swans face champions Cardiff City Women at the Swansea.com Stadium on 6 October.
