Championship leaders Swansea City continued their impressive start to the season as they came from behind to beat Norwich City and remain top.

Having trailed to Jacob Wright's first-half opener, the hosts pounced twice inside the first 15 minutes of the restart with goals from Moussa Yeo and former Canaries striker Adam Idah.

It sealed a win that the hosts' energetic performance deserved and maintained a momentum that had gathered before the international break.

For Norwich, it continued a concerning trend, having now lost for the third time in a row despite opening the scoring in each of those games.

Philippe Clement's side will hope that trend is broken when they welcome Southampton in midweek, although supporters on their long trip home from south Wales could not argue with the result here.

That said, the visitors looked to have ridden out an early Swansea storm that had seen the hosts with plenty of possession and promise without much threat.

Missing top scorer Mo Toure and captain Kenny McLean, the Canaries' opener came from a player who had taken the skipper's place in midfield as Norwich's patience in waiting for breaks paid off.

Capitalising on Swansea overplaying, Oscar Schwartau's pass was finished neatly by Wright in his first Championship start of the campaign.

Still, Swansea continued to find joy and space out wide, Idah guilty of missing opportunities and Vladan Kovacevic doing well when called upon.

It paid off when Josh Tymon delivered on 49 minutes as Swansea rallied from the restart; Yeo took his time to slot home to level.

And Idah's clever movement got its rewards 10 minutes later as he timed his run perfectly to meet Melker Widell's cross and glance home the winner against the club where he spent seven years before leaving in 2024.

Joseph Opoku could have added a third, and Swansea did have to stay focused to stop Norwich finding a way back, although Lawrence Vigouroux was on hand to stop Sam Field's shot on an otherwise quiet afternoon that, ultimately, made it three wins in three for Matos' side.

It is also a sixth win from the opening nine games of the season, so little wonder supporters enjoyed themselves at full-time, singing songs about their league position.

On a fitting afternoon too, as legendary former manager John Toshack watched on as guest of honour, 45 years since he took the Swans to the top of the old First Division.

It is very early days – with a trip to Millwall on Tuesday and the visit of West Ham next weekend likely to provide stern examinations of their status at the summit – but there is every reason for the optimism.

Matos' side continued with their style of football that is both eye-catching in keeping with Swansea's traditional style, but also with an intensity and aggression that is making a difference.

Although there were elements of rustiness about Swansea's opening half – and Wright's goal came during a particularly sloppy spell – they have picked up where they left off before the international break.

There was grit shown to come from behind to beat Lincoln, and there was a confidence about coming back into this game too despite conceding for just the second time at home this term.

In fact, throw in the win at Stoke on the opening weekend, it is the third time they have taken all three points from a losing position.

It is a different story for Norwich, whose confidence took time to grow into the game after a run of games where conceding goals was clearly a problem.

But the minute Swansea levelled, the visiting players seemed to shrink into their black shirts and, despite attacking changes, offered too little to test Swansea at the back.

Swansea, meanwhile, displayed their newfound squad depth. Here they were without Canada international Stefen Eustaquio and kept World Cup pair Marko Stamenic and Elijah Just on the bench.

Goncalo Franco stepped up in his first start to the season to impress and show there is plenty in reserve. When Idah went off with a knock, the concern was eased with last season's Championship top scorer Zan Vipotnik replacing him, while Scotland international Ross Stewart was fit again to take a place on the bench.

The question is whether there is more to come. For now, Swansea fans will simply enjoy the moment.

Swansea city head coach Vitor Matos told BBC Sport Wales:

"We lacked a little bit of precision in the first half in some situations, but it was something that we could easily improve.

"We suffered with the goal but bounced back quite well and I think we improved a lot in the second half in terms of rhythm and in terms of intensity as well.

"I'm really happy with the boys. It's really important for us to win more than anything because we've had players flying around, joining in the last few days so it's not been the most easy to prepare. It's always important when you can get results after this international break so I'm really happy."

Norwich City head coach Philippe Clement said:

"It's very frustrating not to get at least a point. We played against a good team, we know they have taken a lot of points, play good football and press very intensely.

"We did well to find solutions which we've worked on which needed braveness, and we were in control in the first-half with a very good goal.

"We felt their fans were getting nervous because they weren't creating many chances, but second half they came out strong – which we knew would happen – and we should have won more duels.

"Maybe some players were thinking too much about the result and freezing a bit; they didn't have the same intensity.

"We stepped up in the last half hour with some good chances, but we need to take those moments like Swansea did because then it would have been a deserved draw."
