Andre Ayew’s goal describes his mentality after penalty miss – Swansea City’s Cooper

Swansea City manager Steve Cooper is full of praise for Andre Ayew’s mentality after he scored the match-winning goal in their 1-0 victory against Brentford.

The Ghana captain turned saviour for the hosts at the Liberty Stadium on Sunday after finding the back of the net with his left-footed strike from inside the penalty area in the 81st minute.

The strike came 17 minutes after Ayew's penalty was saved by goalkeeper David Raya in the 64th minute.
