Roy Hodgson praised the performance of opponents Swansea City after the FA Cup fifth round tie at the Liberty Stadium.

The two side's played out a 1-1 draw but the Fulham boss admitted that he had been impressed with the Championship side's performance whilst also admitting the Fulham had not played at all well.


"We certainly weren't at our best. I thought it was a jaded performance from our side," Hodgson said after the match on Saturday lunchtime.

"All credit to Swansea, I thought their performance was excellent.

"Their high energy passing and movement was very good and we really had to dig in very deeply and rely heavily on our defensive organisation to keep our heads afloat."
