Swansea smash eight past hapless Notts County

Swansea City have smashed Notts County 8-1 in their fourth-round FA Cup replay at the Liberty Stadium.

After their first clash ended in a 1-1 draw, it was a totally different affair on Tuesday night.

Chelsea loanee Tammy Abraham scored his first goal since October to kick off the rout.

He then set up Nathan Dyer for the Swans second, before the winger doubled his account ten minutes later.

Noor Husin pulled one back for the visitors but it was only a temporary reprieve.

Abraham then had a brace when he completed a beautiful team move on the stroke of half-time.

Defender Kyle Naughton made it five eight minutes after the restart.

Goals from Wayne Routledge, Tom Carroll and Daniel James rounded out what was Swansea's biggest FA Cup victory in their history.

The Swans will now take on Sheffield Wednesday in the fifth round.
