 Duffy opened his Swansea account with two well-taken goals |
Darryl Duffy scored twice in his first start for Swansea to maintain their League One play-off hopes. Lee Trundle atoned for an earlier miss by opening the scoring on 19 minutes before Duffy's clean strike doubled the lead seven minutes later.
A composed finish from Leon Britton's sublime run and pass saw Duffy score his second on the hour mark.
Further goals should have followed but Pawel Abbott, Tom Butler and Tom Williams wasted clear openings.
