    HT: Millwall 0-1 Swansea

    Swansea have the advantage here having finally found a path to goal.

    Steve Cooper's team last hit the target through Conor Hourihane at Luton on 13 March.

    Andre Ayew's strike came almost 500 minutes of playing time later.

    Millwall have had no such issues, having failed to score in only one of their last nine games.

    Gary Rowett will hope his team can extend that sequence in the second half.

    The whistle goes and it is Swansea who head down the tunnel at the break with the lead.

    They had improved as the contest wore on and scored for the first time in five matches through top scorer Ayew, who took his 15th goal of the season very well.

    Millwall now have to find a response.

    GOAL - Millwall 0-1 Swanseapublished at 45+1 mins

    Andre Ayew

    Swansea snatch the lead with practically the last kick of the first half as Andre Ayew cuts in on his left and unleashes a superb left-foot shot into the far corner.

    The goal comes after some sharp Swansea passing, with the ball worked to Ayew in a couple of yards of space on the edge of the box - and he takes the opportunity in style.

    The surprising omission of Connor Roberts today - he had played every minute of Swansea's league season before this - means the visitors have no long-throw option.

    Had Roberts been around, the ball would have gone into the box just now - but instead Millwall defend a throw deep in their territory with comfort.

    A brilliant ball from Scott Malone gives Jed Wallace a chance on the counter, but his drive is saved by Freddie Woodman.

    The flag then goes up anyway - although replays suggest it was a dubious call.

    Millwall would have had plenty to say had Wallace's effort gone into the net.

    A decent chance for Swansea to counter is wasted as Jamal Lowe overhits an attempted through ball to Andre Ayew.

    That is the way things have been going for this stuttering Swansea side in recent weeks.

    Swansea are improving in possession here, although Freddie Woodman's clearance almost causes a problem for a his team.

    In fact, Jay Fulton has to bring down Maikel Kieftenbeld to avert any possible danger.

    The first big opportunity of the game goes to Swansea, but Bartosz Bialkowski makes a smart save to deny Jamal Lowe.

    Lowe has been struggling for goals but has worked from the left flank in this game, and it was his energy which brought the chance as he raced into the box.
