Paul Clement describes Swansea City's 1-0 win over West Bromwich Albion as a "really important result" in their battle for Premier League survival.

Paul Clement has hailed Swansea City's 1-0 win over West Bromwich Albion as a "really important result" in their battle for Premier League survival.

The Swans began Saturday bottom of the table but sealed victory over the Baggies at the Liberty Stadium thanks to Wilfried Bony's late winner.

The result, combined with Crystal Palace's 2-2 draw against Bournemouth, saw the Welsh outfit climb up to 19th place, and Clement is hoping for his side to build momentum heading into the festive period.

"It was a really important result today," Clement told BBC Sport. "As everyone knows we have been struggling for form and performances and results have not been good enough. The players have given everything today.

"There has been frustration in the club that we have not performed how we are capable of. But we did what was needed to be done. The timing of the goal put us in a great position. We are happy to have a win because it seems some time since we have had one.

"It's an important win for everybody. I go into my job the same every week with good prep from Monday to Friday. Now it's move on and this has to be a springboard. We have a difficult test against Manchester City, the best team in the league, but there are points up for grabs so let's see what we get."

The result sees the Swans end a run of seven Premier League games without a win.
