Andre Ayew’s 10th Championship goal sends Swansea back into promotion spot

Andre Ayew netted his 10th Championship goal of the season as Swansea City got the better of Wigan Athletic in a 2-1 win at the Liberty Stadium on Saturday, which sent them back into the promotion play-off places.

The Swans came into this game failing to claim bragging rights in the goalless South Wales derby with Cardiff City last weekend.

They started on the wrong note with Nathan Byrne giving the visitors the lead in the 16th minute on Saturday.

The home team would respond three minutes later thanks to Liverpool loanee Rhian Brewster.
