Ghana ace Andre Ayew in another excellent Swansea display, hits post in Sunderland draw
Andre Ayew was in good form for the Swans

Andre Ayew was denied his third goal in three matches for Swansea City in English Premier League as the Ghana winger hit the post during Saturday's 1-1 draw at Sunderland.

The Ghana international continued with his blistering form to the start of his Swansea City career as he showed an excellent performance in the match played at the Stadium of Light.

Ayew twice got on the end of Jonjo Shelvey crosses but his first effort hit the post before he nodded disappointingly wide from eight yards.

He got a yellow card in in the game.

Sunderland striker Jermain Defoe's equaliser earned his side their first point of the season after an improved performance against Swansea.

The visitors took the lead when Bafetimbi Gomis angled in a shot after being set up by Kyle Naughton.

 

But Defoe clinically levelled when he fired in after a Jeremain Lens pass.

Sunderland were denied a penalty when Jack Rodwell's shot looked to have hit Ashley Williams's arm, while Costel Pantilimon saved a late Gomis header.

Sebastian Coates could have won the game for Sunderland but the centre-back sent his header from 10 yards over.

Swansea also had their chances as an Andre Ayew header hit the post, although they remain unbeaten so far this season.
