Ghanaian striker forward Jordan Ayew has been named Man of the Match by Crystal Palace fans in their 2-1 win over Manchester United on Saturday.

Ayew scored his first goal of the season to help the Eagles secure all three points at Old Trafford in their matchday three fixture.

Palace's fans were impressed by the performance of the 27-year-old, who is winning the Etoro Man of the Match for the second time after his incredible performance against Sheffield United in the season's opener.

The former Aston Villa striker gave Crystal Palace the lead in the 32nd minute of the game to send them into the break with the advantage.

But after the break, Wales international Daniel James scored the equalizer in the 89th minute.

With the game headed for a draw, left-back Patrick Van Anholt scored late to hand Crystal Palace their first win of the season.

Ayew joined Crystal Palace on a permanent deal in the summer from Swansea City.
