2017/2018 English Premier League

Jordan Ayew boosted Swansea's fight for Premier League survival with a precious equaliser in a 1-1 draw against Everton.
Ayew, back from a three-match ban, struck his 11th goal of the season after 71 minutes just when Everton appeared on course for a smash-and-grab win at the Liberty Stadium.
Everton, who were largely outplayed during a frantic contest, had taken a scruffy lead two minutes before the break when Kyle Naughton diverted the ball into his own net.
Ayew's equaliser was no less than Swansea deserved and, following Southampton's defeat to Chelsea in the early afternoon kick-off, it leaves them five points clear of the relegation zone.
