Swansea City 2 Millwall 4

Swansea City Under-18s suffered defeat as Millwall came from behind to claim victory in their Professional Development League clash at Landore.

Rohan Davies opened the scoring in the first five minutes for the Swans after some fine work from Aimar Govea down the left. 

But the lead was short lived as the visitors grabbed three goals in 10 minutes through Jack Howland, Frankie Baker and Alfie Massey respectively. 

Millwall had a fourth after the break when Adedapo Olugbodi fired a long-range effort into the net. Govea would pull one back for the Swans in the final quarter but it wasn't enough for the hosts.

Swansea City Under-18s: Kit Margetson, Iestyn Jones, Arthur Parker, Jacob Cook, Ben Phillips, Harlan Perry, Josh Pescatore (captain), Yori Griffith, Rohan Davies, Thomas Woodward, Aimar Govea (Billy Clarke 80).
