Armed with the knowledge that Hull City had lost to Sunderland, Swansea knew a win against Everton on Saturday would get them out of the relegation zone. They duly provided it, taking a 1-0 decision in their most important game of the season so far.
Positives
The result is the only positive that matters to Swansea and the relegation-threatened club would have taken a win by any means. In the event, the victory was won with a solid defensive effort, yet another aerial finish from Fernando Llorente and a show of application, concentration and 90-minute effort for the third game in a row.
