Swans Hammer Blow

Swans 2 Hamworthy United 3

Following Wednesday's home defeat against Holt United, Swans suffered their second home defeat in 4 days against Hamworthy United at Day's Park in The Dorset Premier League.

A minutes silence was held before kick off to honour club stalwart Lenny Fooks who sadly passed away this week.

Swans suffered a hammer blow after 2 minutes when United's Tadgh Case ran through and beat keeper Taylor Hibbs from an acute angle. Swans Ocean Smith and Hammer's Nemo Nixon both went close as the teams started creating chances on a difficult pitch. Charlie Dyke in the Swans midfield was influential alongside Jack Hughes and Dec Keates. Cody Moore raced through the Hammer's defence but was halted by a fine stop from keeper Jacob Deakin who unfortunately was injured in the collision and had to be replaced by outfield player Ty Famurat. H.T. 0-1.

Cody Moore again went close and Hibbs saved to deny Case then Nixon hit the post with a cross shot. Swans equalised on the hour when Moore was fouled and Jack Hughes dispatched the spot kick. Swans joy was short lived when Case hit the bar then the rebound hit the unfortunate Olly smith for an own goal. The young Hammers side doubled their lead with a good finish from Tadgh Case to complete his brace. The hardworking Cody Moore gave the Swans some hope, lobbing the keeper when clean through, but it was too little too late for the disappointed Swans who missed their chance to climb the table.
