Swansea 0-1 Southampton
Premier League - Saturday, September 20, 2014
Victor Wanyama came off the bench to score a late winner as Southampton secured victory over 10-man Swansea.
The home side dominated the early stages as Wilfried Bony's header was cleared off the line and Wayne Routledge saw an effort hit the crossbar.
But the game changed before the break as Bony was shown a second yellow card for a foul on Maya Yoshida, which allowed the Saints to be more adventurous in the second period.
Graziano Pelle saw two headers saved by Lukasz Fabianski, but it was Wanyama who had the final say as his rising shot found the far corner with just nine minutes remaining.
 
SWANS: Fabianski, Rangel, Fernandez, Williams, Taylor, Shelvey, Ki Sung-Yueng (Emnes, 85), Dyer (Montero, 59), Sigurdsson, Rutledge, Bony.

Premier League - Saturday, May 3, 2014
The Swans suffered a late defeat against Southampton in their final home game of the 2013-14 season.
In a typical end of season affair, both sides struggled to create chances and the game looked destined to end in stalemate.
Sam Gallagher headed wide for the visitors, while Swansea's top scorer Wilfried Bony shot wide in the second half.
But the Saints took home all three points when Ashley Williams' wayward clearance was tapped in by Rickie Lambert from just a yard out.
