Sanders broke the deadlock with 14 minutes on the clock, with a well-taken free-kick from just outside the box.

Cullen gave the Swans a foothold in the game after he reacted to a poor defensive clearance and lobbed Seagulls keeper Tom McGill.
*
Reece Meekums came close to making 3-1 following some neat combination play with Rian O’Sullivan, but his curling effort went just past the post.
*
But O’Sullivan did play a key role in Albion’s third and final goal, as his through pass found Mandroiu, who slotted the ball home.
*
ALBION: McGill; Davies, Balogun, Tavares, O’Sullivan; Ajiboye, Barker, Sanders; Meekums, Mandroiu, Garcia.

SUBS NOT USED:
Hobbs (GK), Cochrane.
