Crystal Palace secured a Premier League victory over Bournemouth at Selhurst Park, with Ghanaian forward Jordan Ayew featuring prominently in the match.
After their previous defeat to Tottenham Hotspur, the Eagles returned to winning ways, propelled by the outstanding performance of Eberechie Eze, who scored two goals.
In the 30th minute, Crystal Palace displayed their determination to find the opening goal, as Jordan Ayew initiated a dangerous attack and provided a pass that found Eze in the area. Eze calmly converted the chance, tallying his ninth goal of the season.
Eze doubled the lead in the 58th minute, capitalizing on a pass from Michael Olise to find the back of the net.
Unfortunately, Ayew’s compatriot Jeffrey Schlupp was unable to participate in the match due to a knock he sustained in the previous game against Tottenham Hotspur. On the other hand, Antoine Semenyo from Ghana did not feature in the matchday squad for Bournemouth.
The victory marked Crystal Palace’s 11th Premier League win of the season in 36 games. With two matches remaining, they currently have 43 points.
Meanwhile, Bournemouth experienced consecutive defeats as a result of this outcome, increasing the pressure to rebound swiftly in their next two games to avoid relegation.
The Cherries will host Manchester United at the Vitality Stadium in their upcoming match, followed by their final game against fellow strugglers Everton at Goodison Park.
