Ghanaian players abroad showed their quality again over the weekend with some finding the back of the net, registering assists, and others clinching their respective domestic league titles.
Jordan Ayew despite having been relegated with Leicester City, was on the scoresheet for the Foxes as they beat another relegated side Southampton by two goals. That was his fifth goal this campaign.
His freekick struck the wall, but he picked up the rebound and slotted it home nicely to score Leicester’s second on the day against the Saints. He was fouled thrice, won four ground duels, and delivered two accurate crosses after playing 70 minutes.
