Swansea City manager Michael Laudrup has hailed his side's "massive" win against Fulham in the Premier League.
The Swans started well, but the away side also had opportunities as the first half progressed.
However, the hosts took control after the break and secured a much-needed victory with goals from Jonjo Shelvey and Chico Flores.
After the match, Laudrup highlighted the importance of picking up points against teams around them in the league table.
"It's a massive win today. First of all winning after [eight] games in the league, secondly against a direct opponent - they had 19 points, we had 21," Laudrup told BBC Sport
"Of course when we play those direct opponents now, which we have to in the next games as well, it's even more important to get the points."
Swansea play West Ham United on Saturday.
