Andre Ayew continues Championship goalscoring run and Yiadom stars in Reading win

Andre Ayew continued his impressive goalscoring form in the Championship with a brace in Swansea City’s 2-0 victory over Middlesbrough.

After scoring a late penalty which gave Steve Cooper's side a 2-1 win over Stoke City on Wednesday, Ayew opened the scoring at Liberty Stadium after taking advantage of a defensive error.

The 31-year-old's strike separated both teams for the majority of the encounter until Egyptian midfielder Sam Morsy grabbed a stoppage-time equaliser for Middlesbrough.

Both teams were poised to share the spoils on Saturday after the leveller but Jake Bidwell won a penalty for the hosts in the last minute of added time which was converted by Ayew.
