Mark Cooper: 'Swindon Town have a lot of work to do'

Swindon Town boss Mark Cooper claims that his side still have a lot of work to do after beating Sheffield United 2-1 in the first leg of their playoff semi-final.

Mark Cooper has insisted that Swindon Town are still a long way from reaching the League One playoff final following Thursday's 2-1 victory over Sheffield United.

Swindon came from behind to clinch a win with Nathan Byrne's stoppage-time strike, but Cooper was keen to guard against complacency when reflecting on a dramatic evening at Bramall Lane.

"The tie is still well in the balance," he told Sky Sports News. "I thought we played well after 20 minutes once we had ridden the storm.

"I thought we were outstanding, some of the football we played was really good but the tie is still well in the balance.

"We are not big favourites, one goal changes everything and everything is very even as away goals don't count. We know we've got a lot of work to do."

Swindon will host the second leg on Monday evening.
