Swansea City ended their pre-season preparations with a 1-0 home victory over Leganes courtesy of a long-range strike from new recruit Joseph Opoku.
Ghana international Opoku, making just his second appearance since joining from Zulte Waregem, finished coolly from 35 yards after Leganes keeper Raul Fernandez had come out of his area.
Opoku's precise effort gave Swansea a deserved win as they dominated possession for long spells against their Spanish second-tier opponents.
When the home side did lose the ball, Vitor Matos' desire to play a pressing game was in evidence as his players hunted to win it back.
Even so it was Leganes who had the first chance of the day, with Alvaro Tejero a little wasteful as he shot over Lawrence Vigouroux's bar.
