In a post-match analysis, Michael Owen, the legendary Liverpool striker, was full of praise for Ayew’s strike.
He remarked on the “wonderful” way Ayew was able to get the ball out of his feet and make a “lovely strike” from 20 yards out.
Owen acknowledged the quality of Ayew’s goal, noting that there was little the keeper could have done to stop it.
“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,” the former Manchester United and Liverpool striker said on the Premier League channel.
“There’s nothing much the keeper can do about that. The ball drops to Ayew and it’s a great strike,” he added.
Jordan Ayew has been a pivotal player for Crystal Palace, contributing three goals and five assists in 23 appearances in the English Premier League this season.
