England legend Michael Owen has showered praise on Ghana international Jordan Ayew for his outstanding goal for Crystal Palace against Everton in the English Premier League.
The Black Stars striker scored from outside the box to hand his outfit the lead in the much anticipated clash at the Goodison Park on Monday.
But second-half substitute Amadou Onana scored in the 84th minute to ensure his outfit secure a point on home turf.
Owen was impressed with the forward's strike, describing it as a wonderful goal as he left Jordan Pickford with no chance.
“Ayew gets the ball out of his feet and it’s just a wonderful strike from 20 yards out and it’s a lovely strike. There’s nothing much the keeper can do about that. The ball just drops to Ayew and it’s a great strike," he said.
Meanwhile, the Ghana international has expressed gratitude to God and teammates for the support.
“I thank God and I thank the team for the effort they put in. I don't want to talk too much about my goal, but the most important thing for me is the team, and we're happy to go home with a point," Ayew said after the game.
The goal was Ayew's third of the campaign and has now made eight goal contributions in the 2023/24 season.
