"Coach Anthony Wright was proud of Swansea City Under-21s' battling performance following their last-gasp 2-1 victory over West Bromwich Albion at The Hawthorns.
Swansea led with 10 minutes played after Aimar Govea's cross was turned into the back of his own net by Muhamed Diomande.
And the visitors retained their lead at the break with Richard Faakye and Iestyn Jones to the fore defensively.
However, the hosts levelled through Oliver Bostock in the final quarter of the contest.
But Govea netted a dramatic last-gasp winner to claim all three points under the lights in the Premier League Cup contest.
"I'm really proud of the players' efforts. We haven't played in around three and-a-half weeks, and at times it showed with a little lack of consistency and momentum," said Wright.
"We had to defend our box extremely well at times, and I thought the boys did that brilliantly against a good category one side who kept throwing everything at us.
"West Brom played with such high intensity, and we had to step up to that at times. They play the likes of Manchester United and Tottenham week-in, week-out.
"We played some terrific football at times, their application was great. Ben Hughes got himself some good saves in goal, and it was good to see him play.
"And a last-minute winner is always a great feeling, you could see that by the way the boys celebrated together.
"They showed great desire and courage to dig deep in the final minutes, you could see some were struggling but they kept going.
"To top it off, we played at a Championship stadium, which is an experience the boys need more of, it’s always a great occasion for them."

Just posted on the Blackburn thread that Wilson was not involved, injured or stepping up. |  | | |

| Swansea Indepenent Poster Of The Year 2021. Dr P / Mart66 / Roathie / Parlay / E20/ Duffle was 2nd, but he is deluded and thinks in his little twisted brain that he won. Poor sod. We let him win this year, as he has cried for a whole year. His 14 usernames, bless his cotton socks.

Wilson scores a few 🤩.
That is Leeds next striker sorted 😤.
But if he does well strikers with scoring feet command a fee.
Would love to see the lad get a chance.
Also if Pophem is so good get him in the first team asap.
We need to get our prospects into the first team.
It Would show that any up and coming player can really hit dizzying heights here?
Also ONE OF OUR OWN !
Is the most satisfying chant after a goal. |  |

I have not seen a lot of Govea but he scored one and created the other. Without him they were guaranteed for a loss.
Parker looked a lot better but clearly here penetrating players can make a difference. Good to see both he and Parker are under long contracts. |  |
