Swansea obliterate Bradford to take COC

Swansea absolutely annihilated Bradford 5-0 to take the Capital One Cup trophy at Wembley.

Goals from Michu, Nathan Dyer (2) and Jonathan De Guzman (2) gave the Swans the famous win.

It was a fairy tale ending for the South Wales team that has struggled in recent times, in their centenary season.

It was 10 years ago when a 4-2 win over Hull saved Swansea from relegation from the Football League. Since then, they have climbed up the leagues, made a few great managerial decisions and have now entered Europe - the prize for winning the League Cup is a place in the Europa League.

Jubilant celebrations followed the final whistle, and both Ashley Williams and Garry Monk had great smiles on their faces as they lifted the trophy.
