Attended game last night with my son. We met a family of 3 on holiday in Cornwall wearing Swansea shirts.They said they were season ticket holders.
As to the game.
It ended 1-1 after we scored a late equaliser from a penalty.
The team fielded was very young with only Benda, Reid and Baker- Richardson familiar to me fron watching the u23's on stream last season.
Truro were much the more powerful team and it showed in the second half when we rarely looked like troubling their keeper.
Benda made some good saves in the second half to keep us in the gameas we tired and Truro won more and more of the ball in midfield.
Reid was poor, bulky but little else, and faded badly before being subbed off.Same for Baker- Richardson, poor control and very little distribution.Why we keep players like these is beyond me,they are never going to get anywhere near the first team in a month of Sundays.
Truro's goal at the end of the first half came from a classic cross from the right and a peach of a header past Benda.Their overlapping full back was much more the real deal ,and if I was a scout I would be recommending we take a close look at him.He was so much better than Reid for sure.
A young lad sitting near us said he thought our player, whoever he was, had struck the penalty very well; and I had to agree with him.It was just about our only chance to score in the second half.
For the record: it was a fine but increasingly chilly evening at Treyew Road in Truro. The official attendance was 159 of which 5 were Swans fans.That's all folks.
