His perfectly placed header found Ayew, who directed a brilliant effort into the net to stun the home crowd and level the contest before halftime.Though Lens regained their lead early in the second half through Florian Sotoca, Ayew was again instrumental in Le Havres fightback. His dangerous cross forced a poor clearance from Malang Sarr, allowing Josu Casimir to pounce and equalise once more.The drama reached its peak in stoppage time when Casimir won a penalty, and Ahmed Hassan kept his cool from the spot to seal a stunning victory.For Ayew, the performance underlined his enduring quality.
