Luke Williams hopes forward pair take confidence from Oxford goals

Luke Williams was pleased to see Žan Vipotnik and Florian Bianchini get on the scoresheet for Swansea City at Oxford United, and hopes the pair will take confidence from their goals.

Vipotnik got his second goal for the Swans when he was on hand to convert Ronald’s cross and give the visitors the half-time lead.

Bianchini then doubled the advantage with a smart, low finish from Goncalo Franco’s pass, and the Swans took all three points despite Dane Scarlett’s late goal for the hosts.

“I don’t think there is anything better for your confidence than scoring a goal to help your team win,” said the Swans boss.

“The first goal from Vipi is a proper goalscorer’s goal, he has got a tap in from making sure he is in the right place at the right time.

“Ronald has stayed calm and put the ball across for him and he has put it over the line. 

“The second one is a one v one, and in those situations you have to be able to hold your nerve, and Florian struck the ball really cleanly.

“We are very, very pleased with that.”
