Jordan Ayew plays full throttle as Liverpool whitewash Swansea City

Published on: 27 December 2017

Ghanaian forward Jordan Ayew enjoyed another 90 minutes in the Swansea jersey, but suffered the heaviest defeat of the season to Liverpool on Tuesday. 

The 26 year old former Aston Villa forward looked to build on the performance of the weekend where he scored to secure the bottom side a draw against Palace but any chance of getting a positive result was cluttered as Liverpool beat Swansea 5-0.

Brazilian forward Roberto Firmino scored twice as Liverpool eased to victory over struggling Swansea at Anfield on Boxing Day.

Firminio's compatriot Philippe Coutinho's brilliant early strike laid the platform for a win which was sealed with a burst of goals after half-time.

Firmino made it 2-0 in the 52nd minute before scoring again 14 minutes later, shortly after Trent Alexander-Arnold netted his first Premier League goal for the club. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain then rounded off a comfortable win in the 82nd minute.

Jordan Ayew had a below par performance but as expected the reds were too strong for the club bottom of the table after 20 games in the English Premier.
