Ronald’s goal midway through the second half<\/a> proved enough to hand victory to Alan Sheehan’s men.<\/p>\nHere’s how the players rated on the day.<\/p>\n
Lawrence Vigouroux 7<\/strong><\/p>\nDidn’t end up really making a save, but was pretty tidy when called upon.<\/p>\n
Josh Key 8 – STAR MAN<\/strong><\/p>\nSo much energy on the right hand side. Did well defensively too, making some key clearances. Often in and around some of Swansea’s brightest moments.<\/p>\n
Ben Cabango (c) 8<\/strong><\/p>\nStrong in the tackle. Made some really good interceptions too.<\/p>\n
Cameron Burgess 8<\/strong><\/p>\nAs above, really.<\/p>\n
Josh Tymon 8<\/strong><\/p>\nBombed up and down the left all day. Another superb showing.<\/p>\n
Goncalo Franco 7<\/strong><\/p>\nBattled fairly well in the middle of the park, but wasn’t quite his most influential game.<\/p>\n
Malick Yalcouye 7<\/strong><\/p>\nSome really promising moments, including an early blocked shot. But was also caught in possession a couple of times. A solid debut, but hopefully more to come.<\/p>\n
Ronald 8<\/strong><\/p>\nShould probably have scored in the first half, but put some good crosses in, and took his goal well. A really good outing on the whole.<\/p>\n
Ethan Galbraith 7<\/strong><\/p>\nLooked after possession reasonably well and linked up nicely with his colleagues in the final third. Good out of possession too.<\/p>\n
Jisung Eom 7<\/strong><\/p>\nReally good in the build-up, but couldn’t quite find a decisive outcome in the final third at times.<\/p>\n
Liam Cullen 7<\/strong><\/p>\nIsolated for much of the first half, but was involved in the goal and grew into the game really well. Typically tireless. Subbed.<\/p>\n
Subs<\/strong>:<\/p>\nMelker Widell (on for Yalcouye 62) – Should have scored a second for his side late on, but did okay – 6<\/p>\n
Zeidane Inoussa (on for Eom 62) – Played an important role in the goal. A really good cameo – 7<\/p>\n
Jay Fulton (on for Ronald 90) – N\/A<\/p>\n
Bobby Wales (on for Cullen 90+7) – N\/A<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Here’s how the players rated during the win over the Blades 17:25, 16 Aug 2025Updated 22:08, 16 Aug…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":350369,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[13,12,14592,14],"class_list":{"0":"post-350368","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-news","8":"tag-headlines","9":"tag-news","10":"tag-swansea-city-fc","11":"tag-top-stories"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115041227448335959","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/350368","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=350368"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/350368\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/350369"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=350368"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=350368"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=350368"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
