Monk delighted for Montero after first Swansea goal

Swansea City boss Garry Monk was delighted with Jefferson Montero's goal in victory over Stoke City.

Montero headed home the opener to score his first goal for Swansea and his manager was full of praise for the Ecuadorian intentional.

Monk said: "I don't think Jefferson has scored too many with his head, but we were glad of it.

"He's been injured and he was sharper again here. Him and Nathan (Dyer) were both excellent especially in the second-half they were a real threat. That's where our threat came from. We attacked with pace and intensity. There only really looked like there was going to be one winner."
