Iraola delighted as Bournemouth win at Swansea in Cup

Bournemouth boss Andoni Iraola was pleased to earn a narrow Carabao Cup win at Swansea City on Tuesday night.

The Cherries won 3-2 thanks to a late Ryan Christie goal to hand Iraola a first victory as manager.

Iraola told the Daily Echo: I think it was a game with two very different parts, two very different halves.

I think we started very bad. Probably the worst way to start, conceding a penalty and we were very slow to move the ball in the first half.

We only had to improve in the second half. I think the rhythm was different in the second half.

We moved the ball much quicker, the rhythm was much higher. And then we were in control of the game.

I think we should have probably won the game earlier, but in the end this is the cup and sometimes you have to suffer."
