Crystal Palace’s head coach, Oliver Glasner, has showered praise on Jordan Ayew for his outstanding performance in their resounding 3-0 win over Burnley in the Premier League.
In his first game in charge since taking over from Roy Hodgson, the Austrian manager witnessed Ayew’s pivotal role in Palace’s triumph. The 32-year-old forward provided an assist and scored a goal to secure a convincing victory for his team.
Ayew showcased his versatility and skill, first delivering a pinpoint cross from the right for Chris Richards to head home and give Palace the lead. Shortly after, Ayew found the back of the net himself to double their advantage.
Speaking after the match, Glasner lauded Ayew’s contribution, describing his cross as brilliant and emphasizing its significance as a game-changer.
“And then you need this game changer, and it was from a set play. It was the second ball, and that was a brilliant cross from Jordan [Ayew],” Glasner remarked.
The victory marked a positive start for Glasner’s tenure at Crystal Palace, with the team benefitting from Ayew’s impactful display and capitalizing on every VAR situation in their favor.
With four Premier League goals and six assists in 24 games, Ayew leads in combined goals and assists for Crystal Palace, highlighting his importance to the team’s success under Glasner’s guidance.
