Matchwinner Ayew explains key Hodgson trait helping him score

When Jordan Ayew angled to shoot at Watford's goal today, the space he had to get the ball through was rapidly closing. But somehow Palace's in-form forward slotted his effort through it and firmly into the back of Ben Foster's net.

Speaking with Premier League Productions after the game, the matchwinning Ghanaian explained the key trait that his manager and teammates possess which has allowed him to enjoy such a successful season.

"The most important thing is the teammates and the manager are giving me the freedom to play and to express myself and that’s what is making me do all the things I’m doing today," he said.
