Ghana striker Jordan Ayew provides assist as Crystal Palace draw at Arsenal

The 30-year-old lasted for 71 minutes before being replaced by Michael Olise at the Emirates Stadium.

Ghana striker Jordan Ayew put up an impressive performance by providing an assist for Crystal Palace in their 2-2 draw against Arsenal in the English Premier League on Monday night.

The 30-year-old lasted for 71 minutes before being replaced by Michael Olise at the Emirates Stadium.

The Gunners started brightly and led deservedly through Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang after Vicente Guaita’s diving save to deny Nicolas Pepe.

But Palace improved as the Gunners faded and Christian Benteke continued his good record in games against the Gunners with the equaliser.

Thomas Partey was caught in possession by Jordan Ayew and Benteke drilled a shot into the bottom corner.

Palace again stole the ball off Arsenal to go ahead, as this time Conor Gallagher dispossessed Albert Sambi Lokonga in his own half, and the visitors broke quickly, with Odsonne Edouard hammering in a shot via the underside of the bar.

And it looked as if they were going to fall short before substitute Lacazette steered home a loose ball from close range.

Ayew has made eight league appearances and provided one assist for Crystal Palace so far this season.
