Fourth-Round Replay: Swansea City v Notts County The FA Cup

MUSIC.

Things are a lot more cheerful at

the Liberty Stadium these days.

Premier League Swansea City have won

three on the bounce at home under

new manager Carlos Carvalhal. A

fourth today, they will be in the

fifth round of the FA Cup. Notts

County are putting for a promotion

from League 2.

from League 2. Better an upside-down

scarf than a half and half scarves,

sonic us kick-off is a matter of

minutes away. We are joined by Dion

Dublin, former Swansea manager Garry

Monk and former Notts County manager

Keith Curle. This is a different

Swansea than we saw a few weeks ago.

They go into this game with some

confidence?

They have turned around.

The manager has got the players

believing in what he's saying. They

have beaten some good teams, are

playing some really good football.

They are missing a couple of good

through injury. Wilfried Bony and

Leroy Fer. But they should have

enough.

You played over many years

and managed them as well, you must

be pleased to see the recovery?

For

sure. It is vitally important. They

have done it in the last couple of

seasons where they seemed dead and

buried and rescued themselves.

Carlos has growing here and Don a

fantastic job. They are on a great

run.

Keith, Carlisle play Notts

County very shortly. You have got to

jobs to night, a scouting mission as

well! What can we expect from them?

I think they will be very organised,

very disciplined. They have good

experience at the back and they have

a goal threat. They have firepower

on the bench as well.

Let's here from the managers.

Starting with Carlos Carvalhal.

During the process to upgrade the

team, I think we are doing better

and better. We are not repeating

mistakes. The dynamic is better. And

of course, because the dynamic is

better, and we have got the results,

the confidence is more high. On the

confidence is high, the players can

perform better.

We have to believe. We are here on

merit. We have to enjoy it. I have

told the lads to express themselves.

I have given them a game plan. They

have a great opportunity of causing

a major upset and getting to the

next round. For me, pretty relaxed

and looking forward to the game.

These are the days you want to be

involved in as a manager.

Kevin Nolan has had a good start to

management.

He has done very well.

He has got them organised.

He has

had a playing career at the higher

levels. He has got them playing

well, good understanding. They have

got a focal point in the centre

forwards.

Swansea, for confidence

and momentum, it is important they

get a result, hence the fact they

are put out a relatively strong

side?

side?

Yes, it is essential they get

momentum.

Despite the important you

keep winning. Sheffield Wednesday in

a replay, Carlos Carvalhal may like

that?!

I think he may do privately,

if not publicly!

The other thing we

have got this evening is VA. -- Var.

We will see how the referees deal

with it tonight. I am definitely in

favour of it. If they can get it

right with the speed of it, we

needed in the game, definitely.

OK. High time we joined our

commentary

OK. High time we joined our

commentary team of Martin Keown and

Jonathan Pearce.

Thanks, Gary. Good evening. Cold and

dry after light snow flurries

earlier. Which Swansea will we see

to night? B-side that thumped

Arsenal seven days ago, the combat

of team that came back to draw at

Leicester. Notts County now 54

places below the Welshman. Can they

reach the fifth round for the first

time in eight years? Let's look at

the teams.

the teams. Nordfeldt maintains his

bid -- placing goal. Narsingh, who

scored in the first game, is on the

right wing. Roberts is on the left.

Nathan Dyer and Routledge didn't

play at Notts County. Abraham is fit

to lead the line. The new signings

are cup tied. Wilfried Bony and

Leroy Fer had for the season. Notts

County have two changes from the

original tie. It is the same bag

for. Matty Virtue, on loan from

Liverpool, is back from suspension.

Alessandra, who had seven minutes

from the bench, plays behind Jon

Stead. Shola Ameobi is rested.

There is the Notts County manager.

He reached the quarterfinal as a

player in this competition. He was

actually at Bolton when they reached

the semifinals.

the semifinals. When he joined the

club they had a run of ten defeats

in a row and were third from bottom.

He has had the same sort of effect

on Notts County as Carlos Carvalhal

has had. There is the match referee,

Martin Atkinson.

Martin Atkinson. He will be in

constant communication with Neil

Swarbrick, the Var back in London.

It is the same combination that was

in charge of Chelsea against Arsenal

in the League Cup semifinal first

leg. If they needed, that is the VA

monitor. -- bar monitor. There is

Tammy Abraham. What are your

thoughts, Martin, on him leading the

line for Swansea?

He has made his

debut for England this season. I

can't believe the turnaround in the

football club since December. They

have beaten Liverpool and Arsenal.

Five points adrift when he took the

job. They have done an excellent

job. He needs to finish it off. They

are the favourites to night,

Swansea.

Notts County in a change

strip in front of a crowd of no more

than 5000, I would think. Some 1300

of them down from Nottingham. It

will be Notts County who kick us

off.

off. Back to Richard Duffy, who

played 20 odd games in his career

here for Swansea. A very quiet

atmosphere in the ground. The noise

you are hearing is being made by the

Notts County fans, behind the goal

to the left of your screen.

Interesting that they have picked

Narsingh in the side. We were led to

believe he would be on the

right-hand side as right wingback.

Movement to the left here for

Swansea. Abraham... That could have

been a very good start.

They worked

the ball well there through the

team. Ellie Chowns. Notts County

will want to keep it nice and tight.

-- an early chance. I expect Nolan

to play in a similar fashion to Sam

Allardyce. They are very direct,

Notts County.

Adam Collin has been to Wembley

twice as a winner. With rather

against Leyton Orient in the

play-off final. -- Rotherham United.

And in the Johnstone's Paint Trophy

for Carlisle United. They beat

Brentford. Keith Curle, in the

studio tonight, as come all the way

down from Carlisle. What a journey

from him.

from him. Notts County of got some

bright players.

bright players. Husin is an

interesting signing from Crystal

Palace. Afghanistan born. He left

that country when he was five. Nicky

Hunt playing the 400th game of his

career to night.

They are

demonstrating that they are prepared

to play, Notts County.

In the first

game, Notts County Ed Moore Premier

League appearances in their team

than the Swansea had.

-- had more Premier League

appearances. Sam Clucas is in decent

form at the moment for Swansea City.

A good interception there. Clucas is

coming into form lately. A decent

cross.

He scored two goals against

Arsenal. But he said himself he has

not performed as well as the body

would when he joined the club in the

summer from Hull. -- as well as he

thought he would. He cost them £16.5

million.

He certainly won't want to

get relegated again. You wouldn't

want that tag next to you.

Wayne Routledge has not had many

starts this season. Only three in

the league. He has, crime in the

last couple of Premier League games

for a minute each time. -- he has

come on.

He has been a good servant

though, and Nathan Dyer.

Nathan Dyer

skipping his way through. Straight

at Adam Collin.

at Adam Collin.

An easy one for the

goalkeeper in the end. The saw the

intention. Nathan Dyer wanted to run

that his opponent, skips past him.

Comfortable for Nathan Cullen. A

couple of good early saves.

Nathan

Dyer is one of five Swansea players

who have gone further than this

stage in the competition before. He

is a bit of a talisman went he

scores. They have not been beaten

when he has found the back of the

net.

net. Kyle Bartley comes from your

former club, Arsenal. He was a

youngster there.

Swansea are playing the ball around

neatly and getting into their

stride.

It looks like a definite

back four for Swansea at the moment.

Roberts 's up very high, the left

wingback. The Swansea wing-backs

pushed Notts County so deep that

Madeleine in the opening 20 minutes

of the game, I thought the Ligue two

team are going to be swamped.

team are going to be swamped. --

Ligue two.

Nathan Dyer looks lively. Abraham

trying to pull away from his marker.

It is headed over the bar by Richard

Duffy.

It was important we got to

it. Nathan Dyer again. Good running

off the ball. Nice passing. He whips

that across. The defender does his

job well. He has got that little bit

of quality, Nathan Dyer.

He is

having a good run in the league

side. He has started ten of their

last 11 games. Carlos Carvalhal

trusts him.

They are doubling on Narsingh. --

doubling up on Narsingh.

doubling up on Narsingh. Dan Jones

is injury prone for a Notts County.

He can't play two games in a number

of days. Straight into the arms of

Adam Collin.

You are looking for a

better quality there from Narsingh.

His manager won't be too happy with

that. He has done exceptionally well

since he has taken over the job.

Other Championship managers must be

watching with envy. Why not going to

the Championship and take a manager

to the Premier League? Row --?

Swansea have definitely changed to a

four.

It didn't make any sense,

Narsingh playing as a wingback. The

five of the back has done well for

Swansea. It is interesting to see

how they will cope tonight.

Defensively.

Also playing a four,

Willie Young Roberts be able to get

as far up the pitch as they might

want to? -- will Yong Roberts be

able to get as far up the pitch as

they might want to? Kevin Nolan,

former Leyton Orient manager.

former Leyton Orient manager. Watch

out for the Notts County number ten.

At the moment the Swansea White men

are flying. Too much pace on that

ball. -- wide men.

Routledge is a

bit out of sorts in his passing. It

is lovely the way he floats past his

opponents but it is the final pass.

Lacking in a bit of confidence at

the moment, maybe.

A good ball out

wide by Jon Stead. He loves this

competition. He is on loan from

Nottingham Forest.

Swansea one of the 11 teams

embroiled in the closest relegation

rat race I can remember.

rat race I can remember.

They have

held their nerve well lately. A few

injuries, of course. They will want

to get this game won nice and early

tonight, rest a? Row.

They have got

four games against relegation

rivals.

rivals.

That will test the nerves.

Clucas drifting into space.

Clucas drifting into space. Won by

Matty Virtue. He was sent off

against Crawley Town just ahead of

the original game.

If they are going

to push Roberts up, Notts County

needs to exploit that, get the ball

forward quickly and early.

It is a

really good story, the Notts County

story, the progress they have made

in the last 12 months. They have

invested a lot of money in this tie.

A three-day trip to south Wales.

Trained at Cardiff City. That won't

please Swansea fans! Cardiff trained

at the Notts County facilities

earlier in the season when they were

in that particular part of the

world.

world.

That was a shot from

distance. Notts County giving a lot

of space away. Not getting

particularly tight. He has decided

to shoot from distance.

Carbajal was

saying he should be a bit more like

Ronaldo. I think all managers would

like their players to be a bit more

like Ronaldo. -- Carvajal. --

Carvalhal.

Kyle Bartley played one game for

Arsenal when he was there. Good ball

out wide by Routledge. Good start by

Swansea, the first game showed as

well. That was too far for Roberts.

Again it is the quality from

Narsingh. He beat his opponent Comey

just can't get his foot around the

ball. You can see in the stadium

there is hardly anybody here

tonight. Was it £2 for the kids to

night?

It was. It is a cold night.

Rapid up against the cold. -- they

are all wrapped up.

They are all sat

at home watching it expect The last

sixth round tie for Swansea was four

years ago.

The last time they

reached this stage they lost to

Everton.

Everton. Roberts has been an ever

present in the FA Cup. Jon Stead has

lost his boot. One of them anyway.

In double figures for the third

season running at Notts County, Jon

Stead. He has had his cup exploits

in the past. This is a really good

run from Kyle Naughton. Too far for

Abraham. George Grant hasn't got the

way. Roberts did well. Routledge...

Nathan Dyer... A good setup.

Really

good play from Swansea. Going down

both flanks. This time it comes

central to Nathan Dyer. Just test

the keeper. You expect him to say

that.

that.

They have found scoring

difficult. 15 goals in 19 games.

Three of those came against Arsenal

last week.

Good to see Kyle Naughton

going down that right-hand side with

some endeavour. The fact they are

playing back four is not stopping

the full-backs from getting forward.

Dickinson against Narsingh will be a

crucial battle, as it was in the

first game.

first game. Hunt was with Kevin

Nolan at Bolton and at Leyton

Orient.

I think you saw 's

experience there, the way he used

the ball nicely under pressure.

Notts County have got to get it into

the big man, Jon Stead. He has

scored all the goals in this

competition. When they are direct,

they are at their best.

Van der Hoorn having a good spell in

the side. I think Carvalhal has come

in and he has got his message

through to certain players, Nathan

Dyer and van der Hoorn are a couple,

that he trusts them.

And he has got

results, quite remarkable results.

There were so far adrift, everybody

saying they would be relegated. It

is so difficult this year to call

who is going to go down.

Liverpool

and Arsenal beat in here.

You can

see more swagger in the players.

That can quickly disappear. They

will want to get this off to a good

start.

Tom Carroll played against Notts

County when he was on loan at Leyton

Orient.

Orient. He reached the fifth round

with Orient, a game where they

played Arsenal, seven years ago now.

They have really underachieved in

this competition over the years,

Swansea. They have reached round

five only five times since 1964.

They are quite happy to stay in that

formation, Notts County.

formation, Notts County. -- Swansea.

It is causing a bit of a problem for

Notts County.

Dickason stretched

there. -- Dickinson. County look

quite comfortable, really. Not the

greatest budget in that division,

round about 2 million.

Routledge with a little touch to

Nathan Dyer. Here is Narsingh.

Nathan Dyer. Here is Narsingh. A lot

of progress of the field at Notts

County as well under the

chairmanship of Alan Hardy, who took

over a year ago. A local self-made

man. He has done good work in terms

of offices and training facilities.

That was too high for Roberts.

Swansea are quite happy to go from

side to side. Abraham must be very

frustrated. We're not seeing a lot

of them. They are not looking at him

and trying to bring him into play.

Missing from the Notts County

contingent tonight is Darren

Fletcher, who is a director at Notts

County these days. He went over to

the Super Bowl and got stuck because

of the weather. He couldn't get

back. He is trying to listen to

night where we can over in the USA.

-- tonight. Header away by Matty

Virtue. Notts County defending deep.

He wasn't over celebrating a

Philadelphia win, was he?!

1-0! It

has been coming. 17 minutes gone,

the Premier League side Sara Head.

We talked about getting the ball

into Abraham. He makes a great run.

Narsingh getting down the right

wing. Simple play. Ball into the

box. Good give and go. He gets it

back. He steadied himself nicely.

Good movement in there. He just

point where he wanted. Near post,

thanks very much. He is off the

mark.

The young England striker on

loan from Chelsea. Started the

season brightly. He gets his first

goal since October.

goal since October. The new manager

is pumped and full of confidence.

That is a smart finish by Tammy

Abraham. It looks as if Notts

County's replay curse is going to

hit them. They have won one of their

last five replays in the competition

will stop the last was in 2010.

You

can give him as much confidence as

you want but if you don't give him

the ball he can't play.

Nathan Dyer!

That is a lovely finish! They have

two goals in two minutes. And they

are in the driving seat.

are in the driving seat.

It is a

wonderful finish but you have to

look at Abraham again. The quality

of his past. His receptors our up,

he is confident. They get the ball

and played through the thirds. He is

going forward, looking for the run,

looking for the pass. Nathan Dyer's

pace and direction does the rest.

Keeps it on the deck. Nathan Dyer

waits for his opportunity. Good

finish.

His first since September 20

15. As I said before, Swansea don't

do losing when Dyer scorers. Is

Carvalhal heading back to

Hillsborough in the next round?

Hillsborough in the next round? It

is a mountain to climb never Notts

County.

A perfect start for Swansea.

A lot of injuries. He will want to

win this game as quickly as he can

and rest a few.

To put this into

some sort of context, Carvalhal's

record, they are unbeaten in seven.

Their best run since 2013. If they

go eight games unbeaten it will be

their best record since the autumn

of 2009.

Quite remarkable. He has

done it from a position where they

were five points adrift. The

confidence must have been at an

all-time low.

One minutes and 24

seconds between the goals. -- one

minute. Abraham was crumpled into

Richard Duffy.

Just trying to use

his body. That is what you want from

a centre forward. He has overdone

it. A definite foul.

it. A definite foul.

The first foul

of the game, I think. Carlos

Carvalhal left Sheffield Wednesday,

came here are few days later. Looks

like he is returning to Hillsborough

on the Saturday of fifth round

weekend. It will be a 12:30pm

kick-off. Hunt with the header

forward. Duffy is there. I think he

has hurt himself. He might have got

a knock from Dyer. He stretched his

groin.

He is a tough man.

He is. In

that first game, a shot hit him in

the throat on the edge of the

penalty area. He went down. He was

down for a few seconds and he got

up.

You have to do that as a central

defender. It is all right as a

centre forward.

I have just seen you

taking your clothes off. That is not

very hard, coming here with your

gloves on! What is the matter with

you?

I'm not running around in the

commentary box like I would be on

the pitch. The Notts County manager

will want something here. Can they

get a reaction? 15 goals from set

pieces this season. Sorry to take

those stats of you.

That is very

like Sam Allardyce's teams.

like Sam Allardyce's teams. This is

Dickinson's ninth club. Can they get

back into it? The goalkeeper made a

mess of that. The shot by Husin. It

was blocked. The goalkeeper didn't

inspire confidence there.

He

certainly didn't.

Virtue was up in

support there.

That will encourage

Notts County, the weather goalkeeper

dealt with that one.

Nicky Hunt at

the other end.

the other end. He was with Kevin

Nolan Cam Bolton reach the

quarterfinals some 13 years ago,

beaten by Arsenal.

beaten by Arsenal. -- when Bolton

reached the quarterfinals.

It is a

shame for Notts County. A bit of a

disaster, conceding early goals. It

is a big night for these boys, live

on television, an opportunity to

showcase their football. It is going

disastrously wrong at the moment.

They really wanted a fifth round tie

as well. There are major debts have

now gone because of the work done by

the chairman. But they still have a

running cost deficit. A cup run

would have helped to ease that.

No foul on Grant. Another

opportunity for Narsingh, doesn't

get many games in the Premier

League, four starts since October.

It was Klement that brought him in,

wasn't it, for 4 million? I think it

is an opportunity to play a couple

who have not played so much. He will

need the whole group.

Andre Ayew is cup-tied, Mesa has

gone out on loan. Various others not

available.

available.

Totally dominant,

Swansea, five shots on target. Dyer

has had three of them.

has had three of them. Notts County,

proud winners of this competition

back in 1894, the oldest club

playing in a fully professional

league in the world.

league in the world.

They've played

more games than anyone else, I know

that. Just wants to stick to the

basics now, Kevin Nolan, just wants

his team to remain professional,

he's talking to his most player

there. Help the boys, talk to them.

Came back from 2-0 down to beat

Bristol Rovers in the first round,

then it was Oxford city, Brentford

in the third round.

You don't see

too many goalkeepers taking free

kicks from there, do you, Jonathan?

Alan Smith on the bench for Notts

County, reached the final with

Manchester United, his final game

for the club.

Makes me feel young -

Alan Smith was playing when I was

playing! Was a difficult customer to

play against.

He is on cameo roles

now from the bench, he's 37 now,

Alan Smith.

He loves the game, great

spirit, good for the youngsters to

learn from.

Is career was impacted

when he had that horrible broken leg

in this competition, Leeds at

Liverpool. It was a horrible

accident, Nepal crammed up against

his leg back in, what was it, 2006.

-- the ball

-- the ball rammed up against his

leg. It will be good to see Wolves

back in the Premier League?

Well, I

think we will. Great old club, isn't

it? Might see another Midlands team

in there as well, with Aston Villa.

They're on a great run at the

moment.

Certainly are.

moment.

Certainly are.

2-0 the lead,

Abraham and Dyer, the goal-scorers.

I don't think Swansea really know

whether to go for it for the third,

or just sit on the 2-0 at the

moment.

Dyer has made a real

difference to the performance in the

first game. That's a good effort...

And that is a third!

And that is a third! And Swansea,

1ft in the next round.

Well, you saw

the quality there of Dyer. That's

the best ploy, just go for it. Just

sweeps the ball into the back of the

net effortlessly. I think he's quite

an underestimated player, Dyer,

plays it wide, keeps his run going,

nobody picking him up, sweeps it

into the corner, 'keeper no chance.

Nobody pressing the ball. And that

really is a good finish, right in

the corner, 'keeper no chance. Just

sitting off him, aren't they, Notts

County?

Just shy of the half-hour

mark.

Party time, isn't it?

Always

been quick, Nathan Dyer.

First goals of the season for him.

He suffered quite bad injury, didn't

he? Didn't he snapped his Achilles?

That's right. Who lost virtually two

years. When he was 15 he could run

100 metres in 11.3 seconds.

That's

not bad, is it? What can you do it

in?

About four days! I don't think

I've ever seen you going past me

down The Mall at the end of the

marathon!

No! Fair play to you!

JONATHAN PEARCE: Very easy for

Swansea at the moment.

I have to say, Martin, I normally

see 33,000 other people going past

me in the marathon!

MARTIN KEOWN: Correct. Dickinson, I

feel sorry for him, he's got no

protection in front, Narsingh is

running at him for phone.

running at him for phone. -- for

fun.

Van der Hoorn... It should have

been four!

And I think there's a

player gone down in the build-up. Is

it Duffy, he thinks he's been

fouled... Takes one in the face

there. Right in front of the

referee, can you see that, Jonathan?

It was van der Hoorn pushed him off.

I think it was a foul. That would be

interesting if he put that in,

whether the referee would have given

a foul.

Well, the referee has his

hand to his ear... We will wait and

see if he... If he takes any further

action. He is in communication

now... Talking with Neil Swarbrick,

the VAR.

the VAR. The aim of the experiment,

not to achieve 100% accuracy, but to

avoid clear and obvious errors.

avoid clear and obvious errors. I

don't think there was much in it

from that angle.

Well, I wonder if

the referee shares that view,

because his armour shouldn't be up

there. No, for me it is just a

shoulder, they're not taking any

action, that's the right way, get on

with the game.

Just a reminder, the

area is to be reviewed by VAR -

goals, penalty incidents and

mistaken identity. I think the

referees are trying to do it in as

low-key a way as they possibly can,

because of everything that

surrounded the introduction of it.

I

think that was dealt with fairly

efficiently and quickly, although in

the ground people were probably

perplexed as to what on earth was

the stoppage.

Are you a VAR man, I

am?

For sure, it is the way to go,

we've got big screens in the ground

here, show us what's happening.

As

the referees did at Super Bowl at

the weekend. Narsingh... Just cut

out by Nicky Hunt.

Well, it's down

that right-hand side again. It's a

free-for-all for Swansea. Just

simple, ball played in behind the

full-back, just too quick.

Last-ditch defending.

Last-ditch defending.

They have gone

out in round 13 times in the last

four years, so to get this close to

their first round five in eight

years is progress for Notts County.

Shola Ameobi is warming up.

It's

about getting promoted for Notts

County, isn't it? That's the bigger

picture. Nearly 18,000 people turned

up at their most recent home game,

remarkable for Division 2.

Van der

Hoorn stretches for it...

Hoorn stretches for it... And he has

brought Notts County into some sort

of contention here, has Husin!

Well,

it's a stunning reaction, isn't it?

Ball into the box, goalkeeper lofted

it forward to the big man, it's a

bit of a free-for-all. How does he

put it in from there? It's a

wonderful finish off his left foot!

Just feathers it round the oncoming

defender. Loss will finish from

Husin.

What composure! -- great

finish. Knew exactly what he was

doing, wonderful finish. And Martin

Atkinson is again consulting here

with VAR. So, I presume he's

checking to see if anyone was

offside.

offside.

Well, he's happy, he's got

the phone in the air.

Goal given.

Yes, he's just looking, there's a

player just in front of the

goalkeeper, just seeing if he

interferes, I think the referee has

made the right call.

Three of them

were standing offside, it's whether

Brisley was in the goalkeeper's eye

line.

We need to see it from a

different angle - if that's the one

they're looking at.

they're looking at. To see it

conclusively they would have to see

it from behind the goal.

Abraham I thought was coming from an

offside position there. Let's have a

look at the goal again, then,

Martin. He's happy enough.

Well,

it's just a long ball in, of this is

what they're good at. Just looking

to see, does that...? I don't think

it really influences... Because his

own player Abraham was in just as

obstructive a position.

He has

checked, and there's no way the

player was in the eye line of the

goalkeeper. It was well taken by

Noor Husin, his second for the club.

Didn't get a chance at Crystal

Palace, he sat on the bench half a

dozen times in two years, went out

to Accrington on loan.

It makes the

scoreline more respectable, with

half-time coming up as well, a few

words and some pride back for Notts

County, it shows they got some

quality if you give them the

opportunity.

And I can confirm that

Neil Swarbrick, the VAR, did check

that and was happy with everything,

and rightly so.

I think we're losing

some of the drama when we can't

actually see it, the viewers back

home.

Communication. Not in every

case, Martin, I don't think because

it would slow things down too much.

He is a good referee Martin

Atkinson. Maybe if the signal came

up on the big screens...

But it is

difficult to pick and choose what

you show. If they were to rub the

goal out we would want to see it in

the ground.

It is a communication

issue, but it is a trial.

But I

don't think it has been fine-tune

quite enough for it to be wheeled

out. It does feel very much like a

trial, and it shouldn't, it should

almost be there.

Well, I think it is

here to stay. Certainly in Germany,

they're further down the road than

we are with it and they have gone

about things in a quieter way. There

has not been the gnashing of the

teeth. Snappy challenge thereby

And Notts County have got in

behind... It would be sensational if

they could get another.

Big cross, away by van der Hoorn.

This is

where Swansea have got to be

little bit, don't want to concede

another one.

space, Abraham...

Five minutes left in the first half.

Grant was clipped, that should be a

yellow card, cynically done, Sam

Clucas.

They're showing a good

reaction, Notts County, now. Good

counterattack there. Clucas making

the foul for his team.

I thought in

the first game, they showed Swansea

too much respect in the first 15

minutes.

I think that's exactly it,

and it's surprising, isn't it? Kevin

Nolan, you think back to the way

that he's been brought up with Sam

Allardyce, it was always, get in the

face of the Arsenal team is, every

time I played against his team, they

wouldn't let you play.

was either a misplaced header or a

really confident header back to the

goalkeeper!

It was just a little

flick and perhaps he should do

better. Good defending.

Finely

judged and confidently done.

Certainly was.

Notts County are resilient away from

home, they've lost just one in their

last seven away from home in all

competitions. And they're beginning

now to get a few tackles in, Notts

County. Well, they're trying to

press the ball high up now and

they're not showing the same

respect. They've got to test these

Swansea defenders - can they really

plasterboard out? -- can they really

pass the ball out?

Saved by the

goalkeeper! Hunt back into the

middle, looking for grant...

Dickinson...

Much better by Notts County, making

a game of it.

Swansea have got a man

over the left. I think they're

getting a little bit of success,

Notts County, and this is the

goalkeeper Nordfeldt. This is a

really unorthodox save, he keeps

putting it back into the danger

area, giving the county players a

bit of confidence to go for it.

they've still got three and a half

I think Hawkridge at times

Clever from Hunt.

Using all of his 400 game experience

are in their thirties. Clucas!

Brilliant challenge by Virtue!

Brilliant, you're quite right! Reach

the danger! He doesn't give up on

it, lovely backheel and the young

man Virtue reads it wonderfully

well. Covering in between his

central defenders, look at that.

He's a 20-year-old on loan from

Liverpool, easily in a regular for

their U23s, nearly 50 games at that

level.

Into the midriff of Adam Collin.

Looks a lot safer than the

to see that, when a goalkeeper just

comes and takes it.

Just cut out by Duffy!

Routledge coming into that little

pocket, difficult to pick up.

The number of times Connor Roberts

has gone down the left for Swansea,

and they haven't played it out to

him. Decent first half. Swansea in

total control...

They're just trying

to keep the ball now just take the

sting out of County a little bit.

Swansea just got into that comfort

zone for ten minutes or so.

I think

the energy levels which are required

for County, it's too difficult for

them.

Whatever happens, though,

tonight, for a League Two team to

get 17,200 for a home game as they

did on Saturday is remarkable, it

was their biggest home crowd since

1974. They're going in the right

direction after some troubled years.

Are you going to tell me who the

manager was then?

1970s or...

Jimmy

Savile?

-- Jimmy Cyrille? They have had

someone before managers over the

years.

years. And that's a very good goal!

4-1 to Swansea City just before

half-time! Can you see how easy

football is? Narsingh, the Penny has

trot for him, let's just give the

ball to the big man! It is a

wonderful ball, by the way,

beautiful crossfield pass on the

counterattack. Narsingh just waits,

look at the movement from Abraham -

give it to me. And he just sweeps it

into the corner, makes it look

effortless. On the carpet, where do

you want me to put this? Thanks very

much!

His first FA Cup goals

tonight, Tammy Abraham. Carlos

Carvalhal's side in firm control

against Brack the half-time whistle

blows. Abraham started the scoring

after 17 minutes, a couple of

minutes later, Nathan Dyer made it

two and got the third, just shy of

the half-hour but then Husin got one

back for Notts County, only for

Abraham to rattle that want in.

Swansea City,

Swansea City, despite the little

lull, are firmly in control.

GARY LINEKER: What about that, five

goals in the first half to skimp

almost more goals than there are

spectators in the ground! But

entertaining stuff, and Swansea have

been good?

Patient

entertaining stuff, and Swansea have

been good?

Patient on the ball,

waiting for things to happen, making

Notts County work incredibly hard

for the ball. You can see the

golfing quality.

Garry, Swansea have

been in fatty, really.

They've been

very, very go but I think Kevin will

be a bit disappointed. In terms of

the game plan, I worried for them at

one point when it was 3-0, and I

increase all the game plan after

that, they became a bit more

physical. But unfortunately they

have just conceded another one which

has set them back again.

Keith

Curle, you know about life in this

division does it surprise you?

I

think they have allowed Swansea to

get into their passing with. I don't

think there has even been a big

tackle in the first half to make

them start thinking there's

challenges coming in. They stood off

them, and the three goals were

merited.

Did that surprise you, a

team coming here, you would think

they would be in their faces?

Sometimes you can worry about spaces

and not men. That's your man, don't

let him play the ball forward. And

don't worry about the spaces. But

the movement, rotation, Dyer,

Routledge, very good. Second

Division defenders don't want to go

short.

They have got to have a go,

they should have had a goal earlier,

have a go!

It is probably too late

now.

It is but Dyer, Routledge, like

you said, Tammy Abraham... His

movement is...

Especially for the

first one.

Yeah, he's holding up the

ball, he's giving his team a chance

to get out. This was a simple 1-2,

and he's in. That should never

happen, they were ball watching,

Notts County. That is a perfect

strikers goal.

For sure, it's great

movement. But like you said, being

beaten with a simple wall pass and

then coming into the box with no

challenge, it is quite simple goal.

It's frustrating for them.

It is a

nice opportunity for Abraham, who

hasn't played that much football of

late.

Some good touches, yes, he's

showing up well, and he's got good

players around him.

players around him.

One of the

clever things is, the Swansea team,

Dyer, is taking up positions such

that they just don't know what to do

with him. We've got a few clips

here, he's finding areas where they

don't know what to do - is the one

behind go? Does the one in front

girl? Doesn't get anything from it

in the unsettled he's on his toes,

and it's hard to defend.

I think as

well its the three of them, with

Dyer and Abraham as well as

Routledge. The defenders have not

been able to make that decision to

go and pick them up. As we saw with

Nathan Dyer's second goal.

He got

his goals in the end!

This was a

good finish, wasn't it?

I think the

problem they have had is that the

large Husin has been sitting in

front, but they need three men

sitting in there. -- the lad Husin.

As defenders, do you go tight or do

you ask your midfield player to sit

in front?

I think you need to keep

your back four intact. Which means

you've got to get a screen in front

and have two people. The back four

have got to stay connected and don't

let the ball go behind you. Back

yourself at the back.

They've got to

work harder.

I think as well it will

be interesting to see in the second

half whether the centre-backs for

Notts County decide to go and try

and be more aggressive, or if they

set off. If they do that it could be

dangerous.

Surely they've got to get

a little bit of anger, if you like?

When it went to 3-1, we were

thinking, there might be half a

chance. If they had gone in at 3-2

it might have been different.

This

is a League Two goal! Keep the ball

alive, land on the second ball,

there we go!

I thought that was

actually the first time they

actually put it into the box. Again,

I think Kevin will be disappointed

is in that must have been part of

the game plan, to test their defence

with some dead ball situations.

And

the referee got a word in the era

from the VAR man!

It was a great

finish, and I think they have got to

do more of that, Notts County, wet

physical, don't let them be too

comfortable on the ball, and they

will have a chance!

Journey at

3-1...

But they've shown they can

score goals - get the ball in the

box!

But this came just before

half-time...

It's the last thing you

want just before half-time!

You have

got to get a yard closer to him. He

doesn't want the ball coming out of

the sky and having a League Two

defender...

Do you think it's

because they're not used to coming

up against players like this?

I

think so, to be fair, their passing

and rotation has been excellent.

Is

Romsey have done what they needed to

do, Garry?

Yeah, they've been

excellent. The movement, the goals,

as a manager, Carlos Carvalhal, he

will be saying, more of the same.

Kill the game completely, and seat

if they can get a few more to help

their confidence.

There are two more FA Cup replays

tonight. Birmingham City and

Rochdale bowls leading in their

respective ties. -- bowl. A deeply

poignant day at Old Trafford. It was

the 60th anniversary of the Munich

air disaster. Respects were paid to

those affected by the tragedy. Among

those to share their thoughts were

Michael Carrick, Antonio Valencia

and the club itself. 60 years on but

never forgotten?

And rightly so.

That is what the fans expect. Never

forget who they are and how

important they were to the club.

Unimaginable that something that

could happen?

It is a terrible thing

to happen. The good thing about it

is these kinds of tributes, that

have come from Manchester United and

also around the world, are vitally

important.

Brings football together

as one, doesn't it?

Definitely.

We

are at the DW Stadium for the fifth

round tie between Wigan Athletic and

Manchester City. A repeat of the

2013 final won by Wigan. Emmerson

Boyce was the man who lifted this

famous trophy on that day.

It was a strange week. It was quite

relaxed in terms of the build-up.

The fans came out. Man city is a

massive club. Everybody expected

them to beat us.

them to beat us. I asked if I could

carry the mascot rather than put him

in a chair. He calmed me down. I

remember walking out. There was a

sea of noise. It was probably one of

the easiest team talks I had. Tell

them to focus and stay calm, enjoy

the moment and make history. The

first five or ten minutes they took

the game to us. The goalkeeper made

a great save. As the game went on we

started getting more control.

McManaman had a fantastic game. It

gave us a boost going into the

second half knowing that we could

create chances. I remember looking

at the clock and thinking it was not

going to go to extra time when

Zabaleta was sent off.

Headed in by Watson! Watson's header

as won the FA Cup final four Wigan

Athletic.

Ben had just come back from a

serious injury. That is the stuff of

fairy tales. You come of the bench.

I remember the ball in slow motion

going into the back of the net. To

be the first one up there lifting

the cup, I became the first Asian to

the first person from Barbados.

Loads of little landmarks for me.

The impact in the town was

absolutely fantastic. It is

something that nobody can take away

from you. Not many people win the FA

Cup. Not many people had a medal. I

am more than proud to be able to

show mine off.

More FA Cup football tomorrow night.

Let's head pitch side to talk to

Leon Brittan.

Good to see you, Leon. The scoreline

tells its own story.

What did you

make of the first-half? It has been

very good for ourselves. Racing into

a three goal lead after have an

hour, played some very good

football. Notts County came back

into it. They will be disappointed

after getting their goal that we

made it 4-1. We can be very pleased.

It has been such an impressive run

of late. Just one defeat in nine

games. Is there a real momentum

around the club at the moment?

There

is at the moment. Since the new

manager has come in we have had an

upturn in results. Especially the

last couple of games in the lead,

beating Liverpool and Arsenal. It

has given us a fighting chance.

Before he came in we were in a bad

run of form. He has turned things

around. He has given confidence to

the players. He is passionate and

enthusiastic and it is rubbing off

on the players.

We have all seen his

press conferences. He has got a

likeability factor, hasn't he? You

say it is rubbing off on to the

players. Is he like that all the

time?

He is like that. If you see is

team meetings, he is full of energy.

I don't know how he keeps going.

Sometimes it is nonstop. He has come

in after leaving Sheffield

Wednesday, people may have

questioned the appointment but he

has hit the ground running. He has

given the players a lot of

confidence. We have turned things

around. There is a long way to go

but if we carry on we will give

ourselves a great chance.

And

important few games, getting out of

the relegation zone as well. But

ultimately you are in a battle for

survival. How important is a cup run

with that in mind?

I think it still

breeds confidence. We want to keep

this could run that we're running

the league but we want to carry that

into the cup. We want to go as far

as we can. We have started well

today. Hopefully we can progress and

going to the next round against

Sheffield Wednesday. The more you

play and win games, the more it

breeds confidence which should help

us in the league.

You are looking

good at the moment certainly. Good

to talk to.

Thank you. Thank you.

Bags of goals in our game. We can

show you the goal scored in the

Rochdale versus Millwall game.

many of its good players over the

years.

That would have been a lovely ball.

It would. I don't want to talk about

really well in that competition.

Very interesting. We can

hear Carvalhal screaming at

to take him on. Abraham controlled

that nicely. He is disappointed in

the end.

have a fifth. A big deflection.

I

think the goalkeeper will be

disappointed. He has been positive

throughout the game. He came for a

ball which he didn't get near. He

just parries it down. Let's see if

he has been -- been fouled? I don't

think so. It was just unconvincing.

He gets punished. He flaps added

with his right hand.

there was a deflection. I think it

Narsingh, keep taking the full-back

on, I will keep making runs to the

far post.

Van der Hoorn is in there. Kyle

Bartley is there as well. This may

be put in by Tom Carroll. In it

it was not a handball.

It is must like a testimonial now.

don't think it was a handball.

that they handball? It has bounced

up and hit his hand. Notts County

committed one foul in the first

half. Already four in the early

moments of the second.

moments of the second. Roberts is a

really promising young full-back.

Through to die. Hard challenge on

him. Routledge sidesteps his way

through and scores a sixth for

Swansea! He has deserved that. Notts

County hit by six of the best.

Swansea are just too good. They are

punishing with their passing. If it

is not Nathan Dyer it is Routledge,

or Abraham. There is a really good

tackle from Dickinson. You think he

has just saved his team but up pops

Routledge, steps inside. He has seen

everybody else do it, he might as

well do it himself. He makes it look

so easy. Sweeping the ball into the

back of the net.

Notts County's

worst defeat of the season by some

distance.

The gulf in class is just

stunning here.

stunning here.

Swansea have not won

a game by more than a 2-goal margin

prior to this game.

To put it into

perspective, this is a Swansea team

who beat Liverpool, who, just a few

days before that, had beaten

Manchester City. And they have

beaten Arsenal here. There is no

great shame in losing.

great shame in losing. For Notts

County, get one back if you can.

Matty Virtue has covered a lot of

ground tonight.

He has. He has done

well. It is tough when you get an

examination like this so early in

your career.

Abraham slipped.

He wants that ball

in the channel. He is a willing

runner. Good movement again.

What a

long way to travel down. Over a

thousand of them. They would bring

to do, freshen it up. Give some

experience to some other players.

Keith for a while. Swansea are going

to make a change as well. Here is

I think Notts County are so

rigid. If anybody plays between the

lines, their midfield is too far

away from the defence. It is Nathan

available for the pass. If not, it

Alan Smith is getting ready to come

It is interesting hearing Carvalhal

shouting instructions to his

players. He wants the ball moved

quickly, he wants his runners to be

direct.

I think when you are trying to build

confidence, as Carvalhal is, you

will take a game like this all day

long rather than a training session.

Just wide. The young full-back gets

up so well in support.

He does but

it is a wonderful pass. Abraham is

screaming at him. Everybody wants to

get in on the act. But do the right

thing. Pick out the front man.

Alan

Smith, 37 years of age now, comes

on. Jon Stead, a youngster at 34,

departs. Smith a runner-up in 2007

in the FA Cup in his Manchester

United days against Chelsea. That

was his swansong as a United player.

He played over 40 games in the FA

Cup over the years, Alan Smith.

I

think it is a tribute to his fitness

that he is still playing at 37. Not

bad, is it?

He always had that

hunger for the game.

He has. Don't

worry about that. He will try to get

in on the act tonight.

in on the act tonight.

That is a

lovely goal! The best of the night.

Tom Carroll. We have seen some good

goals tonight.

We were talking

earlier about a training session or

a game. The realism here, the

platform to build for the future

this season... This will not do the

confidence any harm at all.

Certainly per Tom Carroll. He lends

it, get it back, changes the angle

and he whips it into the corner.

That is a beautiful finish. Fashion

the angle for himself, knew what he

wanted to do. No keeper is saving

that.

His first in almost a year,

Tom Carroll. It really was a

beautiful goal. 7-1 to Swansea.

Almost too good to believe.

What is

happening, he says?! What am I

creating your?!

They have scored as

many goals tonight as they have in

their last six games. They are

looking for another one.

Notts County could have won it at

Meadow Lane in that second

Notts County could have won it at

Meadow Lane in that second half.

They got in Swansea faces in that

second half in the first game, but

they gave themselves too much to do

in this match.

in this match.

I think it bobbled

just as he went to deliver that,

Forte. Good pace from him.

Forte. Good pace from him.

7822 in

the ground. And entertaining

evening.

15 attempts on goal. 12 of those 15

from Swansea, on target. Just the

three at the other end.

Notts County would have wanted a

bigger gate than that here, they get

a share of it, of course.

Let's hope

there's plenty of kids watching at

home who see how easy it is to score

a goal, because they've made it look

easy tonight, Swansea, haven't they?

They've played the simple game well.

Brilliant, that is, brilliant. Come

all that way, 7-1 down puddle

doesn't support.

doesn't support. -- 7-1 down,

magnificent support.

Just something to make me chuckle -

somewhere in North America, Radio 5

Live's Darren Fletcher, a director

of Notts County, stuck there, can't

get back because of the weather,

he's found some way to listen to

this... And his team has been hit

for seven!

I bet he wishes he

couldn't tune in!

JONATHAN PEARCE: He's part of what

is a developing story there. But

they've been outclassed tonight.

MARTIN KEOWN: It's a learning curve

for the manager as well, isn't he?

The system that he plays.

He's been

everywhere. Bought the badge...

Again, simple game.

Still got his

touch, hasn't he, Smith? Control the

ball first, Jonathan, the most

important thing.

important thing. They have defended

very deep, and it's just inviting

trouble the whole time.

Narsingh defending well there.

At the moment Swansea's biggest ever

FA Cup victory was against

Folkestone in 1966, and at was seven

two.

two.

Do you really remember that,

Jonathan?

I remember the year well,

1966.

No, the win against

Folkestone!

Pardon?

The win against

Folkestone!

Seven two!

You need to

get out, fella!

It is good news for the academy is

well, when a young man gets a chance

and they can judge him and see how

good he is.

good he is.

Alan Smith... Not moving

his feet as quickly as he once

could, Alan Smith.

That's the

problem, you get smothered as a

front player when it comes in, no

real support around you.

England

international in his day, Alan

Smith.

Smith. Here's Narsingh. Almost

exhibition football from Swansea

City.

City.

They've been allowed to play,

right from the off they haven't

really got close enough.

It will be interesting at the

weekend to see if they play a

similar system to this against

Burnley, or whether they go back to

the three. It has worked quite well

for them and I would suggest they

WILL go back to the three.

Here they

come looking for another one.

James... Really decent hit.

Well,

it's positive, just couldn't find

the corner. Coming in off the left,

hits it well. Comfortable one for

the 'keeper.

One for you, six for me!

Bit like

half-time, that, Jonathan, isn't it?

You sharing out those biscuits!

Swansea have just got to keep moving

it, to touch, kick the ball moving.

Good other professional performance,

see it through.

They're going to

give another youngster his first run

out, the 20-year-old Swede is going

to come on.

to come on. No point risking senior

players out there now who they will

need at the weekend. 16 minutes to

go.

That's the benefit of winning

the game early, isn't it? Give some

players some rest, blood a feud

youngsters.

The shame is, when people look at,

black and white, 7-1 to Swansea, in

years to come, they won't is either

45 minutes that Notts County had at

Meadow Lane in the second half, when

they played so well.

It's about

taking your chances in football,

isn't it? Home advantage is huge,

the uncertainty of going to a lower

league club, but now, you can just

see the quality of Swansea here.

Alan Smith has taken his hair out of

the little bun... Headed it down to

Hawkridge. Up towards Smith, with

the long mane now, losing out to

partly.

He does well there, Berklee,

I think he has been a plus point for

Swansea tonight.

-- Bartley.

Swansea, 54 places above

Notts County, certainly shown that

superiority.

I think Grant is better than this.

Yes, 17 goals this season.

He has

got to forget about tonight, how

much does it take out of them, a

live game on TV and I think the

teams in the division will look at

it and think, how good are they?

Kevin Nolan has just got to be

careful, young manager, doesn't want

his season to become a disaster

after this.

after this.

Maric waits to come on.

I don't remember many offsides in

the game.

We've just had goals,

haven't we?

haven't we? Nordfeldt clears it

away.

That's a foul conceded by

Wayne Routledge. Jumping into the

much taller Brisley.

Adnan Maric will come on for van der

Hoorn.

I think that is a message for

van der Hoorn, look after him for

the weekend.

the weekend.

Decent game, decent

spell, not everyone's cup of tea.

Started eight of their last nine

games, had a hamstring injury before

that. Good enough to win a title

with Ajax. Still going strong, the

Notts County fans. Time for bed. I

think she's just... Just beginning

to struggle!

It is like an exhibition game.

It

is, and their finishing has been

fantastic. Against the Premier

League team, you give them

opportunities and they will take

them - and that's the difference.

Keeping them in the Premier League

is obviously top of the list but

such is the ego, he won't want to go

out of the FA Cup to his former

team.

The way that he left, I think

it was by mutual consent, but was he

pretty well sacked? And he's

demonstrating he's a good manager,

very, very impressed with Swansea,

not just tonight but their recent

results have been outstanding,

really.

He nearly got Sheffield

Wednesday up, didn't he? Play-Off

Final, lost against Hull and then

went out against Huddersfield. Now,

was he pulled down? Martin Atkinson

was right up there with him. That's

one side of his game today that has

been very, very impressive. 73%

possession, Swansea City. Totally

dominant.

I would have thought it

was more than that, to be honest. I

don't know who's doing those stats.

Now, here comes Narsingh. James...

Narsingh again. Comes out to
