    Swansea 0-1 Wrexham Craig Faulconbridge netted the only goal of an undistinguished game at The Vetch Field as Wrexham beat relegated Swansea 1-0.

    It was a ninth home defeat for Swansea in Division Two this season, in front of their lowest league attendance of the season.

    Just 2,665 fans were in the ground when Darren Ferguson lifted the ball over a square Swansea defence to Kevin Russell.

    He made ground down the left before crossing for Faulconbridge to head home in only the fourth minute.

    Swansea, whose return to Division Three was confirmed last Saturday, fought hard in an effort to get back into the game.

    Stuart Roberts and Andrew Mumford both went close with long-range efforts. But a mix-up between Matthew Bound and goalkeeper Jason Jones almost let in Wrexham's Carlos Edwards, who pulled his angled shot just wide when it seemed easier to score.

    The Swans kept pushing away but Wrexham always had just that little bit too much and never seriously looked in danger.
