The visitors went into the game knowing nothing less than a three goal victory would see them progress but they never came close to realising that dream.

Indeed, their task became all the more impossible on 21 minutes when defender Simon Kelly glanced an Adrian McCafferty free-kick past his own keeper whilst attempting to send the ball into touch.

It was a lead Harry Fay's side scarcely deserved based on the balance of play but despite their endeavour United failed to trouble Swifts keeper Dwayne Nelson for virtually the entire 90 minutes.
