Gomis with late winner as Swansea beat 1860 Munich

Swansea City's preparations for the new Premier League season continued with a 2-1 friendly victory over 1860 Munich.

Bafetimbi Gomis netted the winner for Garry Monk's side 17 minutes from time, after Daniel Adlung's penalty had cancelled out Jack Cork's opener.

1860 Munich only avoided relegation to the third tier of German football by prevailing in a play-off at the end of last season, but they provided a stern test for Monk's men.

Trialist goalkeeper Josh Vickers guessed the right way from the spot, but Adlung's penalty into the left-hand side of the net was too accurate.

Swansea restored their lead soon afterwards, though, when Gomis turned his man and fired home and, with five minutes to go, the Premier League side were thankful to Vickers for making an excellent stop from Okotie to secure the win.
