JUST before walking on to the Wembley turf yesterday afternoon, Swans mascot Tyler Lucas was asked by Swans skipper Ashley Williams to predict the score.
"I said 4-2 or 3-1," said Tyler. "He said, 'Sounds fine'."
Well, expectations were exceeded.
For Williams and Co, it was a 5-0 rout - for Tyler it "was the best day of my life".
The 11-year-old Ysgol Bryn Tawe pupil was chosen as a mascot after winning a competition run by the club.
He met both sets of players before kick-off yesterday and added to his autograph tally.
"They were all really nice," he said.
Walking on to the pitch in front of 82,597 fans was unforgettable.
"I was just in shock," said Tyler, of Llansamlet. "It was really loud. It was brilliant."
Tyler, accompanied by his mother, missed Nathan Dyer's opening goal, but it didn't matter.
"It was just awesome," he said.
