Adam Idah ended his club goal drought as he scored his first goal for Swansea City this afternoon.
The former Celtic striker netted a penalty in a 3-1 loss to Leicester in the English Championship.
Idah, 24, hadn't scored for his new club since levelling the scores on Saturday afternoon. Leicester would go on to win the match, though, as Abdul Fatawu and Jannik Vestergaard both scored in the final 15 minutes for the away side.

Despite defeat, Idah opened his account for Swansea and ended a near five-month goal drought at club level.
The Irish forward last scored for Celtic back in May in a 5-1 win over Aberdeen in the Scottish Premiership last season.
Idah had netted for the Republic of Ireland between those strikes but had to wait six matches before netting for Swansea City after his summer transfer switch.

On his move to Swansea from Celtic, Idah said: "It was a crazy week. I had no thoughts of leaving Celtic, but Swansea came in. It was a good project for me to go down to the Championship and restart.
"I loved my time at Celtic. I had some amazing memories, but it was probably time for me to move on and have a fresh start."
"I think there have been so many games where I've won them games and got them qualified for things, the finals," he told Sky Sports in another interview. "It probably goes unnoticed.
"It can be tough, you get a lot of hate. You might have a bad game and it's torture. It's a difficult place up there.
"But flip it the other way, you're doing well and it's the best place ever.
"I think that's what it's going to be like at any top club. You've just got to deal with that.
"Celtic is one of the biggest clubs in the world. It's a really proud moment for me, playing for them."
