Match Commentary

-
So United stay in touch at the top, and Swansea still look capable of achieving Premier League survival. Little learned about either side, in reality. A boring game and one that changes little in the league's landscape.
-
They were ultimately let-down by a brief lapse of concentration and poor defending which created Hernandez's goal. The truth, however, is that United probably wouldn't have sat back so soon had they not scored such an early goal and so a different outcome wouldn't have been that likely.
-
Rodgers can still be pleased with Swansea, though. Despite an obvious disadvantage in terms of playing personnel, they kept the ball down and played their passing game.
