Ki Sung-Yeung's opportunistic poke home from a yard out in the ninth minute was enough to win a stop-start match lacking in quality.

The Baggies rarely created any chances from open play but were dangerous from corners, while Swansea gave the ball away far too easily in the first-half.

Albion should have had a penalty in the 28th minute when Chris Brunt was felled in the box by Angel Rangel, but referee Roger East waved the appeals away.

Four minutes from time, substitute Callum McManaman went down under a stray leg from Leon Britton, but it looked like the winger flung himself to the floor too easily and again East said no.

The win lifts Swansea - who are currently being coached by caretaker manager Alan Curtis - to within two points of the Baggies.
