Ghana forward, André Ayew enjoyed a dream return to action after the COVID-19 break with a goal and assist for Swansea City in the English Championship.
The Swans gave their play-off hopes a major boost by travelling to beat Middlesbrough 3-0 at Riverside Stadium on Saturday (June 20).
All goals came in the first half with Liverpool loanee Rhian Brewster bagging a brace while Ayew converted a penalty for a huge halftime lead.
Brewster put the Swans in front after 18 minutes of play by turning home Andre Ayew’s cross from inside the six-yard box.
He then got his second in as many minutes, volleying home Kalulu Aldo’s cross after another brilliant move by the visitors.
Not long after the half-hour mark, Swansea’s Conor Gallagher was tripped in the box, leaving the referee with no choice but whistle for a penalty.
Andre Ayew stepped up and calmly sent the Boro keeper the wrong way to register his 15th goal of the campaign in the 34th minute.
No goal was produced in a pretty uneventful second half with Ayew enjoying 81 minutes of game time before making way for Yan Dhanda.
The 3-0 victory propels Swansea to 7th with 56 points after 38 matches.
