The Championship match between Swansea and Bristol City provided few memorable moments, but one particular set-piece blunder stole the spotlight. During the game, which ended in a 1-0 victory for Bristol City, Swansea’s attempt at a short corner resulted in a comical mistake.

With Swansea awarded a corner, Brazilian winger Ronald quickly passed the ball to teammate Ben Cabango, who was just five yards away. However, Cabango managed to pass the ball out of play for a throw-in to the opposition, leaving both players looking stunned. Fans took to social media to share their amusement, with one calling it the “muppet of the week” moment. Despite Swansea’s struggles with set pieces, Bristol City capitalized on a short-corner routine to secure the win with Robin Dickie’s 73rd-minute goal.

The defeat marked Swansea’s sixth loss in 11 games, leaving them in 15th place in the Championship and just five points clear of the relegation zone. Their next match against Cardiff City promises to be a crucial one as they look to improve their position in the league.
