Andre Ayew: Marseille boosted by late Inter win

Published on: 23 February 2012

Ghana winger Andre Ayew believes his stoppage time winner against Inter Milan in the Uefa Champions League has re-ignited Olympique Marseille fans.

The 22-year-old beat the Inter defence to glance home at the death just when it seemed the game was heading for a draw to underscore his importance to the Marseille team.

Marseille go into the second leg with a slender 1-0 lead and Andre believes his goal has brought a new sense of believe among the Stade Velodrome faithful.

"The win feels good and we will not let go. The fans are happy and we will do everything to please them in all competitions," Andre told the club's website.

"This is a good result at home. We were able to stay focused and win the game."

Andre has taken his Champions League tally to three after netting a brace against German champions Borussia Dortmund in December.
