Swansea marked Paul Clement's appointment as their new head coach with a dramatic 2-1 victory at relegation rivals Crystal Palace.
The 44-year-old had been appointed only hours before kick-off and was not officially scheduled to take charge until Saturday at Hull, but he came down to the touchline as goals from Alfie Mawson and Angel Rangel secured only their fourth Premier League win of the season.
Defeat lifted Swansea off the foot of the table and means new Palace manager Sam Allardyce has taken only one point from three games.
Until Rangel's 88th-minute finish, Wilfried Zaha's equalising goal came close to giving Allardyce's own reign some momentum.
From what appeared a routine right-wing cross from Martin Kelly, Zaha brilliantly and athletically volleyed towards the bottom corner.
At that point, Palace would have taken a draw, but just as at the Liberty Stadium, the concession of another late goal led to defeat.
Substitute Leroy Fer chipped a superb pass from the outside of his boot over the hosts' defence and into the area, and fellow replacement Rangel controlled before calmly finishing beyond Hennessey to secure all three points.
