Swanston signs new deal
Guangzhou Evergrande have decided to extend my contract by a further year, with 9 months remaining on my previous deal I decided to talk to the board about extending my contract, they agreed and negotiations were underway
my players were in buoyant mood after hearing about my contract extension and knew that a win against Grampus could send us through if other results went our way, despite having less possesssion our man of the moment Zhang Zizhe once again stood up when we needed him and scored two very classy goals, plus an own goal from Nagoya Grampus defender earned us a 3-2 win
that win put us in first and guaranteed our progress to the knock-out stage due to our better head to head record with 2 games in hand
