Swansea notched its second win away in the English Premier League when it came from behind to beat West Bromwich Albion 2-1 on Saturday.

The result extended West Brom's poor run at home, having collected eight points in The Hawthorns but 18 away from home.

Marc-Antoine Fortune put West Brom ahead against the run of play in the 53rd minute when Graham Dorrans' corner was sent on by Jonas Olsson and Fortune at the far post smashed it in.

Midfielder Gylfi Sigurdsson, on loan to Swansea from Hoffenheim, then came to the fore, converting Neil Taylor's cross for the equalizer two minutes later.
