Ghana striker, Jordan Ayew has taken a swipe at critics after ending his goal drought in the English Premier League on Monday night.

The 28-year-old netted his second goal of the season in Crystal Palace's 3-0 heavy home win over Arsenal at Selhurst Park.

“It’s a lovely pass [from Joachim Andersen],” he told Palace TV+.

“Obviously it’s on my left foot – people give me stick about my left foot, but today I think I showed them that I have a good left foot.”

“I just slotted it in. I’m very happy, and I hope it’s not the last goal I score. I hope there is more to come in the next few games.

“I’m pleased. As soon as I came back from AFCON, I didn’t really have game time, and today I had my opportunity so I'm happy to have taken it and happy to score as well.

“It has not been easy but we keep on pushing and working, and we’re happy it paid off.”

Ayew, who has had a difficult spell at Crystal Palace this season, managed to score his second Premier League goal in his 26 appearances so far this season.

He remains Ghana's top scorer in the English Premier League with 28 goals.
