Jordan Ayew scores as Swansea City beat Wolves in FA Cup

The Ghana striker opened the scoring as Swansea secured a 2-1 win over Wolves in the FA Cup replay game.

The Ghana international opened the scoring for the Swans as they beat the Championship side 2-1 to advance to the fourth-round of the FA Cup.

Having drawn 0-0 with Wolves a fortnight ago, Swansea needed to win at the Liberty Stadium to qualify to the next round.

Jordan, who has been impressive for the Swans this season, continued with his fine form by netting with a sublime effort on the 11 minute.

The 26-year-old showed great awareness to stab the ball past the Wolves goalkeeper to hand Swansea a first half lead.

However, the Championship outfit returned strongly in the second half and equalized through Diogo Jota on 66 minutes.

The leveler by Wolves, though, was shortlived as Wilfried Bony popped up with Swansea’s second three minutes later.
