Andre Ayew features in Swansea City slim defeat to Cardiff City

Published on: 20 March 2021

Ghana captain, Andre Ayew was in action as Swansea City lost at the Liberty Stadium to Cardiff City on Saturday afternoon.

The defeat means the Swans have suffered back to back defeat.

Aden Flint’s early header settled the south Wales derby.

The centre-back nodded in from close range in the eighth minute and, despite heavy pressure from the hosts for much of the final hour, the hosts could not find a leveller.

Andre Ayew went closest to an equaliser, as he glanced a Connor Roberts corner against the far post in the second half, while Morgan Whittaker was twice denied by keeper Dillon Phillips.

The defeat leave Swansea at the 3rd spot with 69 points.

Meanwhile, Ayew will miss Ghana's 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against South Africa but will team up with the team against Sao Tome in the final group game.
