Swans stun Blues with a victory for first time in 87 years

Swansea City last defeated Chelsea in 1925 - almost 87 years from now and have since then been in pursuit to beat their own record by defeating the Blues.

And Wednesday yesterday they did it with a 2-0 victory over the Blues in the Capital One Cup semi-final first leg at the Stamford Bridge.

It must be a heavy blow to Rafael Benitez as since his taking over the Chelsea, he has not been able to take Chelsea out of crises.

Michu struck the first goal in the 39th minute of the first half and despite a 64% possession of ball by the Blues, the Swans continue to push the Blues to the corner and the second goal came almost moments before the final whistle when Graham scored the second goal in the 90th minute - leaving n chance for the Blues to equalize.

And it was Chelsea defender Ivanovic who faulktered on both occasions to allow the Swans to goal.

The win Wednesday puts Swans firmly in command heading into the second leg at the Liberty Stadium on 23 January as they look to end an almost 100-year wait for a first major trophy.
