Gyan, 33 registered the first of the two goals in the 64th minute from a spectacular freekick, before Andre Ayew put the icing on the cake in the 71st minute.

Asamoah Gyan who is the all-time top scorer of Ghana has fallen down the pecking order at his club Kayserispor coupled with injuries.

And he stands the danger of missing out on Kwesi Appiah’s final 23-man squad for the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations to be staged in Egypt.

The former Sunderland striker is Africa’s all-time top scorer in the history of the FIFA World Cup.
