The Ghana captain headed home a rebound after a Bidwell header cannoned off the woodwork following a Connor Roberts cross in the 44th minute.

It was his eighth goal of the season.

In the 54th minute, Jamal Lowe doubled the lead for the Swans after a superb vision and pass from Grimes.

Swansea are now on 39 points from 20 matches; four points behind leaders Norwich City who have played one matchless.
