An inexperienced Swansea City XI lost their pre-season friendly at Bournemouth on Friday night.

Marc Pugh opened the scoring for the Cherries, heading home Simon Francis's teasing cross.

Forward Pugh added a second on half-time with a low shot from the edge of the area that found the bottom corner.

Brett Pitman added a third from the spot when Angel Rangel handled, but new Swans signing Jefferson Montero pulled one back with a deflected shot.

Montero and fellow Swansea senior Nathan Dyer had started on the wings, but the visitors had included Scott Tancock, Alex Samuel and Lee Lucas from the Under-21s squad.
