Wales international Nia Jones says it was “awesome” to play at Swansea.Com Stadium, but admitted Swansea City were left frustrated after their goalless Adran Premier draw with Barry Town.
Swansea’s first game at the ground this season saw the hosts dominate, but fail to find the breakthrough.
It leaves Jamie Sherwood’s side trailing champions Cardiff City by two points after the opening two fixtures, with a south Wales derby at the same ground fast approaching at the start of next month.
Newcomers Briton Ferry Llansawel and The New Saints, along with the Bluebirds, have also recorded perfect starts, and Swansea expected to follow them.
But Jones said: “The first emotion we are all feeling is frustration.
“Obviously we dominated possession, but credit to Barry they set up that low block that we found really difficult to break down.
“There were moments that we played the style that we wanted to play, we moved the ball at good speeds and we found our key players, but it’s just that final product.
“The goalkeeper for Barry made a couple of outstanding saves, but on the whole we are leaving here frustrated because it was a great opportunity to play at the Swansea.com Stadium, but hopefully it will make us hungrier for three points next week.”
Swansea travel to face Wrexham at the Stok Racecourse on Sunday, with Jones – a new signing this summer following her move back to the sport from netball – admitting the big-stage experience was positive.
She said: “The occasion was awesome, the experience of being in the changing room, the fans who came to watch, they’ve given us the platform and the stage that we are striving to perform on and there is nothing we want more than to be scoring goals here.
“It’s still a point picked up and all points will be really valuable come the end of the season when we are challenging for that top spot, but there is plenty to work on this week.
“We don’t fear anybody, all teams are going to be tough and we said that before a ball had been kicked. But we are confident, we will stick to what we do.”
