Post-match reaction

After the match, Laudrup was left less than impressed with the decision and accused match officials of not knowing the rules. He told Sky Sports: "What I do not understand is our disallowed goal. That is not a decision in football, it is a rule. You can never be offside if you receive the ball from an opponent." Laudrup also said: "Frustration is when you see a disallowed goal like this, because someone, obviously, I do not know, they do not know the rules, or whatever." And Steve Clarke admitted his West Brom side had been fortunate not to concede the late equaliser. He said: "We got a break at the end, because the Swansea goal that would have made it 2-2 was not offside. It came off Ben Foster last. "But sometimes when you put as much effort and quality into the game, you get a little break."
