SIGURDSSON STRIKE ENDS HIDDINK'S UNBEATEN RUN
By uwoghiren
The blues suffered their first Premier League defeat since the appointment of Guus Hiddink as they lost 1-0 at liberty stadium on Saturday.
Hiddink replaced Jose Mourinho on an interim basis in December and has successfully guided Chelsea into the top half following a disastrous start to their title defence.
However, in the first match since Antonio Conte was confirmed as Mourinho's permanent successor, it was the Welsh club who celebrated reaching the fabled 40-point mark at the Liberty Stadium.
Gylfi Sigurdsson's fourth goal in five league matches gave Swansea a deserved lead midway through the first half, while Alexandre Pato wasted two golden opportunities to restore the party. but Swansea held on to end Hiddink's 15-match unbeaten run and record their first Premier League win over the London club.
