Andre Ayew’s brilliant goal delays PSG’s Ligue 1 title celebration


Andre Ayew scored a brilliant goal as Le Havre forced PSG’s Ligue 1 title celebrations to be put on hold as the two teams played out a thrilling 3-3 draw.

The Ghana skipper found the net again, his fifth strike against PSG, making the French champions his favourite Ligue 1 opponent.

PSG were made to wait to secure their third straight domestic crown, with their struggling opponents enjoying a timely boost to their survival hopes.

Christopher Operi broke the deadlock when he rounded off a neat move in the 19th minute and, though Bradley Barcola equalised, Andre Ayew’s strike restored the visitors’ lead before half-time.

Le Havre were in dreamland just after the hour mark when Abdoulaye Toure netted from the penalty spot after VAR ruled Danilo Pereira had fouled Loic Nego.

Luis Enrique introduced Goncalo Ramos soon after and the substitute helped PSG back into the contest, with a strong run before feeding Achraf Hakimi to halve the deficit in the 78th minute.

Ramos then grabbed an equaliser in the fifth m
inute of stoppage time when he glanced home Lee Kang-In’s cross, but the hosts must wait to guarantee the title.

The goal was Ayew’s fifth of the season for Le Havre, a side embroiled in a relegation fight.
