Andre Ayew shines as Swansea City extend unbeaten run against Millwall

According to Goal.com, The Ghana international was in action as Steve Cooper’s men continued their impressive start to the season at Liberty Stadium

Andre Ayew featured as Swansea City secured a 2-1 victory over Millwall in Saturday’s Championship game.

The 30-year-old forward has been delivering impressive performances for the Swans since the start of the 2020-21 campaign.

The Ghana international opened his season account against Wycombe Wanderers and also provided an assist in the encounter to ensure his side secured all three points last time out.

Following the eye-catching display, the versatile forward was handed his fourth start of the season at the Liberty Stadium and made the most of the opportunity.

Both sides missed several scoring chances as they went into the break without finding the back of the net.

The second half, however, saw more goal-mouth action and Millwall broke the deadlock through Jake Bidwell after he was set up by Morgan Gibbs-White in the 46th minute.

Tom Bradshaw levelled proceedings for Steve Cooper’s men five minutes later after benefitting from Shaun Hutchinson’s assist.

Ben Cabango then scored the all-important winning goal for Swansea in the 68th minute, firing home from close range.
