The joyous Swansea City player ratings as wing-backs dazzle and Andre Ayew delivers in Stoke City win

FREDDIE WOODMAN 7

Helpless with Stoke's opener but was otherwise solid. Decent save to deny Soutar in the first half.

KYLE NAUGHTON 7

Did the basics well enough throughout. Won the penalty at the death.

BEN CABANGO 8

Made his fair share of interceptions and clearances while also carrying a threat in the air in both boxes. Good display.

MARC GUEHI 7

An uncharacteristic mistake early on which led to Stoke's opener, although the Chelsea loanee was his composed self after that setback.

CONNOR ROBERTS - Star Man 8

Brilliantly volleyed home on 19 minutes to bring Swansea level with what was his fourth goal of the campaign. Great chance late on too, but his performance was hugely impressive. Always offered a threat.

MATT GRIMES 8

Looked solid yet again at the base of Swansea's three-man midfield. So much good defensive work.

KOREY SMITH 7

Won a few free-kicks in the first half. Solid throughout in fairness.

JAY FULTON 8

Some good moments on the ball and Swansea looked to win the midfield battle. Really impressed in the second half and played his part in some good attacking moments.

RYAN MANNING 8

Tried his luck with numerous shots and put in a sublime first-time cross for Roberts to equalise. Looked a real threat for Swansea while being solid defensively.

ANDRE AYEW 7

Played his part in Swansea's equaliser while he also looked decent in the air in both boxes, although he didn't really cause Angus Gunn any problems.

JAMAL LOWE 6

Looked off the pace in the opening 45 and struggled to make an impact in the Stoke half. Had a shot blocked after the restart and was subbed on 70 minutes.

Subs

Conor Hourihane (for Lowe) - Made a difference in the final third after coming on. Looked lively. 6
