Swans won for the first time on the road this season with a single goal from Leon Knight on 54 minutes.

It was a rollercoaster afternoon for Knight, for as well as scoring the only goal he missed a penalty and was also sent off on 63 minutes for a second bookable offence.

Justin Miller was sent off for Orient on 35 minutes for a professional foul on Darren Pratley. From the resulting penalty the O's goal-keeper, Welshman Glyn Garner, saved from Leon Knight.

Swans goal came from a free kick from Alan Tate which was headed past Garner by Leon Knight.
