    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    A chance for Swansea's Wayne Routledge as he's found in the penalty area but he loses his balance at the vital moment and the visitors clear. 

  2. YELLOW CARDpublished at 33 mins

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Another yellow - that's three in 33 mins. Tackles flying in all over the place.

    Swansea's Neil Taylor goes sliding in on Nathan Redmond and goes in the book.

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Norwich's Nathan Redmond comes hurtling up the right flank but is stopped in his tracks by Ashley Williams, the man who scored the winner in Swansea's win over Arsenal on Wednesday.

    Plenty of battling going on in midfield, but lacking any killer touches in either box, as the possession stats show.

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Gylfi Sigurdsson curls a free-kick into the box but it's collected easily by Norwich keeper John Ruddy, who is sporting some lovely pink socks.

    Few chances appearing in this game so far. Very cagey. 

  5. SUBSTITUTIONpublished at 26 mins

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Norwich have been forced into an early change. 

    Defender and free-kick man Robbie Brady is limping off and has been replaced by Ryan Bennett.

    "Swansea have struggled to get their passing game going at times and the home fans are getting frustrated. A huge groan echoes around the Liberty Stadium each time a mis-placed pass gifts away possession."

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Federico Fernandez dispossesses Steven Naismith on the edge of the Swansea box and the home defender goes powering up the pitch.

    A cross from the right is met by Andre Ayew, who's recovered from an earlier knock, in the middle of the penalty area but he can't direct his header on goal.

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Wayne Routledge clips Norwich's Nathan Redmond on the ankle which earns the visitors another free-kick.

    Another Robbie Brady set-piece comes flying in from the right but keeper Lukasz Fabianski's got it covered 

  9. YELLOW CARDpublished at 18 mins

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Angel Rangel tangles (ooh it rhymes) with Robbie Brady and the Irishman is booked. 

    Gylfi Sigurdsson whips in the resulting free-kick and it's punched away by Norwich goalkeeper John Ruddy

    It looks like Swansea forward Andre Ayew was caught on the head by Ruddy. He's going to need some treatment.

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Norwich forward Steven Naismith is caught by Neil Taylor, and the referee plays the advantage before bringing it back for a free-kick.

    Robbie Brady has a go again from the set-piece, further out and more central than the last one, and it's easily collected by the Swansea keeper.

  11. YELLOW CARDpublished at 13 mins

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Norwich's Cameron Jerome is booked after leading with his arm on Federico Fernandez. Both were going for the ball, so it seems a little harsh on the Canaries striker.

    "Alex Neil is barking instructions from the technical area, almost constantly. He is not a happy man, so far. But Norwich have had a relatively solid start - certainly better than their start against Chelsea, when they conceded inside the first minute."

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Robbie Brady whips in a free-kick from distance for Norwich and it flies over the penalty area, missing all the bodies crowded in it. 

    It's dipping and it doesn't go too far wide of the post.

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    It's really, really bright out on the pitch at the Liberty Stadium. It's making Norwich's kit even more garish. 

    And here's something you don't see very often - a foul throw. 

    Ivo Pinto laughs it off as Swansea claim it back.

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Swansea's Alberto Paloschi is played through into the box but he completely air-scuffs his shot. Not a good look.

    Norwich go on the counter and Nathan Redmond cuts inside on his left foot but shoots at keeper Lukasz Fabianski.

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Norwich midfielder Gary O'Neil, complete with Terry Butcher-style bandage on his head, looks like he handled the ball in the centre of the pitch but the ref waves away any claims.

    Swansea break forward and Angel Rangel punts the ball into the box before Norwich clear their line.

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Swansea are hovering down the right and Jack Cork sends a long ball in, but it's too deep for Wayne Routledge. 

    A reminder that Francesco Guidolin picked the Swans team from his hospital bed, where he's recovering from a chest infection. Coach Alan Curtis will be the man to make the decisions from the dugout. 

  18. KICK-OFFpublished at 15:00 Greenwich Mean Time 5 March 2016

    Swansea 0-0 Norwich

    Swansea get us underway.

    Referee Craig Pawson sort of high-fived the two captains at the coin toss. Odd.

    The players are lining up in the tunnel as kick-off approaches. 

    It's a beautiful sunny day in south Wales, but for some reason the floodlights are on at the Liberty Stadium. 

    Think of the electricity bill!
