Andre Ayew's brace helped Swansea bring a run of six league games without a win to an end as they walloped nine-man Middlesbrough at the Liberty Stadium on Saturday.

The 28-year-old poacher was on hand just after 20 minutes, converting from the spot after being bundled over by Dael Fry inside the box.

Browne, a 51st-minute replacement for Adam Clayton, was booked in the 52nd minute and sent off in the 63rd - a straight red.

His indiscretions were all the worse given his side had just cancelled out Andre Ayew's penalty with a Marcus Tavernier strike. Ayew then went on to add a second and Sam Surridge a third.

Jonathan Woodgate will not be happy with Marcus Browne who saw red for a lunge, while Paddy McNair was dismissed for elbowing Matt Grimes.
