Fernando Llorente struck twice in stoppage time as Swansea City staged an incredible comeback to beat Crystal Palace 5-4 at the Liberty Stadium.

Crystal Palace took the lead through Wilfried Zaha but Gylfi Sigurdsson levelled with a free kick before half-time.

Swansea took control of the second half and Leroy Fer scored twice in two minutes to put the hosts on course for victory.

But Crystal Palace fought back to go 4-3 up with three goals, in the space of nine minutes, from James Tomkins, Zaha and Christian Benteke.

Subsequently, substitute Llorente netted a quickfire double in the first and third minutes of stoppage time to hand Swansea a first Premier League win under Bob Bradley.
