Ghana duo Jordan Ayew and Jeffrey Schlupp feature for Crystal Palace in defeat at Chelsea

Published on: 15 January 2023

The Ghana duo of Jordan Ayew and Jeffrey Schlupp put up a good performance for Crystal Palace on Sunday when the team locked horns with Chelsea in the English Premier League.

In the Week 20 encounter of the English top-flight league campaign for the 2022/23 football season, both players were handed starting roles for the Eagles.

Unfortunately, Patrick Vieira’s men could not get the result they wanted at the Stamford Bridge.

A solitary strike from Kai Havertz in the 64th minute after he was assisted by Hakim Ziyech propelled Chelsea to a narrow 1-0 win at the end of the tough contest.

Five minutes after that goal, both Jordan Ayew and Jeffrey Schlupp were substituted.

The changes could, however, not inspire Crystal Palace to come from behind to get anything out of the match.
