Swansea boss Brendan Rodgers describes his side's goalless draw at Newcastle as "a terrific point".

Swansea City manager Brendan Rodgers was delighted with his side after their goalless draw at Newcastle United.

The Welsh side are 12th in the Premier League table after their hard-earned point at the Sports Direct Arena.

"It is an incredible achievement, and it just comes on the back of a real team ethic and hard work from the players," Rodgers told Sky Sports News.

"It was a terrific point for us, at what has proved to be a very difficult place this season.

"It is the perfect away performance, to keep a clean sheet as long as you can and stay in the game, and then your own game starts to come to the fore. That is exactly what happened."

The Swans next travel to Everton in the league on Wednesday evening.
