JAIDON Anthony shared his delight that David Brooks was able to open his account for the season as Cherries defeated Swansea City 3-2.

Anthony provided a fantastic assist for Brooks to equalise after Cherries trailed 1-0 in Wales thanks to Matt Grimes’ first-half penalty.

The away side then took a lead through Hamed Traore, before the hosts again levelled scores via Jamie Patterson.

In the end it was substitute Ryan Christie who had the last say, finding the bottom corner in the 90th minute to send Cherries through to the next round.

Discussing his assist for Cherries’ first, Anthony insisted that Brooks deserved the credit for applying the finishing touch.

He told the Daily Echo: “It was a good ball and to be fair it's not an easy finish either, on his weak foot.

“I think he's had a really good pre-season and a start to the season in front of goal.

“I'm happy he could put it away and help us to win.”

Brooks’ goal came about after Cherries won the ball high up the pitch, with Anthony believing the strike to be representative of the way Andoni Iraola wants Cherries to play.

“I think the manager wants us to be aggressive in every game,” explained the 23-year-old.

“It's a perfect example of the high press and what that can do.

“Win it back and then attacking pass, and we get the goal - happy days.

“The most important thing was getting through to the next round.

“The first half, we knew we weren't at the races and we knew we had to react in the second half.

“I think obviously the second goal is probably a bit unfortunate, but I think we deserved what we got in the end.”

The draw for the third round will be made on Wednesday evening, following the conclusion of second round ties.

Teams will not be regionalised, meaning Cherries could be handed another lengthy trek.

Sides competing in Europe enter at this stage of the competition, with third round ties being staged the week commencing Monday, September 25.
