Jordan Ayew equals 2015 record with goal against Aston Villa

Jordan Ayew bagged the solitary goal for Crystal Palace as they recorded a 1-0 Premier League victory against his former employers, Aston Villa, at Selhurst Park on Saturday afternoon.

The 27-year old – who signed for the Eagles permanently from Swansea City after spending the previous season in South London on loan - netted his first goal of this campaign, in last weekend’s massive 2-1 win away at Manchester United.

He would repeat the same again, this time connecting with a pass from countryman Jeffrey Schulpp on the left, ghosting past two Aston Villa players, and then beautifully composing himself to drift the ball into the right-hand corner of the net, beyond the reach of goalkeeper Tom Heaton.
