Afcon 2021 qualifiers: Andre Ayew backs Jordan to continue ‘taking initiatives’ after South Africa showing

Ghana captain Andre Ayew has stated team-mate and younger brother Jordan will take a personal assessment of his own performance in Thursday’s 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier against South Africa.

Although highly commended for his work rate, the Crystal Palace striker was criticised for selfish play and a lack of precision with final balls as the Black Stars secured a 2-0 home triumph in the Group C tie.

Goals from Thomas Partey and Mohammed Kudus decided the fixture at Cape Coast Stadium.
