Pablo Hernandez, Alejandro Pozuelo and Michu all score to help Swansea City record a 5-0 pre-season win over Yeovil Town.

Swansea City have continued their pre-season preparations with a 5-0 victory over Yeovil Town.

Michael Laudrup picked a strong side for the friendly at Huish Park, with new signing Jonjo Shevley starting alongside Michu and Ashley Williams.

Last season's top scorer Michu opened the scoring on 27 minutes, slotting home after receiving a precise pass from Pablo Hernandez.

Swans goalkeeper Michel Vorm was forced into action on more than one occasion before the break, helping his side maintain a narrow half-time advantage.

Early in the second half Swansea doubled their lead through Nathan Dyer, who applied the finish after a cross into the penalty area from summer signing Alejandro Pozuelo.

Hernandez, Rory Donnelly and Pozuelo all added their names to the scoresheet in the closing stages, helping Laudrup's side record a comfortable win.

Exeter City are next up for Swansea on Sunday, as preparations continue for a Europa League qualifier against Malmo or Hibernian in 12 days' time.
