Dede Ayew ends season with 12th goal

Ghana forward Andre Ayew scored his 12th goal of the season after seeing his attempted free-kick come off Fernando and beat Joe Hart in post for Manchester City.

 

The 26-year-old kept his tradition of scoring against the big sides in the English Premier League season.

Ayew has now scored against Chelsea, Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspurs, West Ham United, Liverpool and now Manchester City.

The Ghanaian is now officially the highest goal scorer for the Swansea this season and will be delighted with his return after joining from Marseille in the summer.

After Manchester United's game against Bournemouth was abandoned due to a security alert at Old Trafford, Arsenal crushed relegated Aston Villa 4-0 and Spurs capitulated 5-1 at 10-man Newcastle United to blow their chance of finishing above their neighbours for the first time since 1995.

Champions Leicester City drew 1-1 at Chelsea to end the campaign 10 points ahead of the chasing pack, another staggering achievement in a remarkable season for Claudio Ranieri's team.

Manchester City made the perfect start when Kelechi Iheanacho fired them ahead after five minutes.

Swansea equalised on the stroke of halftime through Andre Ayew's deflected free kick and the visitors endured a few nervy moments in Manuel Pellegrini's last match in charge before celebrating the point they needed.

Spurs, Leicester's closest challengers in the last few weeks, endured a dismal afternoon at relegated Newcastle.
