Brentford are angry having seen Rico Henry shown a straight red card for a challenge on Connor Roberts - but are they right to be angry?
Henry and Roberts both went after a loose ball right in front of the dugouts.
Henry got some of the ball, but his boot was raised and there was real force in the challenge.
Swansea now have around 20 minutes to try take advantage of the extra man.
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
How important could that be?

Double-change for Brentford as the game restarts.
Mads Roerslev and Emiliano Marcondes on for Josh Dasilva and Bryan Mbuemo.
Conor Gallagher has a shot saved by David Raya, who could prove to be Brentford's hero if they can hold on here.

Swansea 0-0 Brentford

He leads with his studs and he is late.
The referee is right, by the letter of the law he needs to go.
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
I think we could all do with a little breather after those few moments of action.
A missed penalty and a red card, all in the space of a minute.
Ladies and gentlemen, the Championship play-offs!
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
Red card for Brentford!
This could be controversial - the Bees' players and coaches are furious.
Rico Henry slides in on Swansea right-back Connor Roberts. It looks rash but Henry is convinced he got the ball.
Keith Stroud disagrees and reaches for the red card, and Brentford will have to play the final 25 minutes with 10 men.
Replays show Henry's leading foot was raised, with studs showing. Was that a fair decision?
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
David Raya saves the penalty from Andre Ayew!
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
Penalty to Swansea!
It's a swift Swans counter-attack, with Andre Ayew breaking forward and feeding Rhian Brewster, who's brought down in the box by Brentford captain Pontus Jansson, who can have no complaints.
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
Andre Ayew has his head in his hands, and you can see why after that miss.
Swansea's forward cuts inside on to his favoured left foot inside the Brentford penalty area but he doesn't quite wrap his foot around the shot, which curls over.
You would have expected better from a player of his quality.
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
Swansea's Jay Fulton lines up a shot from 25 yards but he curls it into the grateful arms of David Raya.
Brentford then counter-attack through Ollie Watkins down the left before that move breaks down.
The game looks like it might be getting a little stretched now.
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
Brentford are in the ascendancy again, peppering Swansea's penalty area with a flurry of fine crosses.
They're not leading to many clear-cut chances but the visitors' threat is growing.
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
That's an excellent header from Ben Cabango, Swansea City's young centre-back, as he clears a dangerous cross from Henrik Dalsgaard.
But just moments later Cabango gets himself booked for a foul on Ollie Watkins.
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
Big chance for Brentford and Mathias Jensen, who pulls his left-footed wide inside the Swansea penalty area.
It was a nice pass from Said Benrahma to tee him up.

The cries of encouragement from the few people in the Liberty Stadium stands are getting more desperate as this contest wears on.
Both sides have their backers, but it is the distinctive Liverpudlian lilt of Swansea legend and club ambassador Lee Trundle that can be heard most clearly early in the second half.
The home side are responding, with Cooper's men showing plenty of attacking intent right now.
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
Brentford right-back Henrik Dalsgaard is booked for a late sliding tackle on Jake Bidwell.
From the ensuing free-kick, Conor Gallagher crosses and Andre Ayew heads straight at David Raya in the Brentford goal.
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
Brentford pass it around beautifully at times - but they also know when to opt for the no-nonsense approach.
Big centre-back and captain Pontu Jansson clears his lines with an absolute monster of a punt downfield.
Swansea 0-0 Brentford
The Brentford players are first back out on to the pitch for the seond half, inspired by another look at Thomas Frank's tactics board. One for Dragons' Den, that.
Swansea's players are out now too.
It will be Brentford to get us under way in this second, and we're off!
