Andre Ayew was certainly missed when Olympique Lyonnais somehow held Olympique de Marseille to a draw at the Stade Velodrome. The youngster is currently set to help guide Ghana to the final of the African Cup of Nations and says that he has not forgotten
Les Phoceens
Ghana international, Andre Ayew is currently on international duty with Ghana where he is captaining the Black Stars in the African Cup of Nations. Ghana are in the semi-final of the African showpiece where they will face Zambia.
A win over http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mali-c2951 or the tournament favourites, Cote d’Ivoire. However, Andre Ayew knows that his side has a great chance of winning it. Ghana have won the CAN four times. However, the last triumph came
back in 1982 when his father, Abedi http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Libya-c2942 in a penalty shoot-out.
However, back in France, Ayew’s club, Olympique de Marseille have started showing signs of how much they miss their young winger. In their last Ligue 1 game, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Olympique-Lyonnais-c40130 at the Stade Velodrome.
The game should have been done and dusted before the second half even began. Les Phoceens lead 2-0 initially but Les Gones mounted a great comeback to share the spoils.
Ayew says that he watched the game and was disappointed because he felt that his team should have won the game. However, Ayew said that he always has Olympique de Marseille in his heart and he will be back at his best when he returns to the Provence of Rhone.
Ayew also thanked coach Didier Deschamps for understanding his emotions to play for his national side.
“the coach always wants to be fully staffed. But he was a player and knows that CAN is very important to us. If it had been up to me, I would have played that game (against Lyon). In both cases, we are here to win titles.”
Ayew is certainly in the form of his life and if he returns to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/France-c2899 as an African Champion, Marseille may well have a greater use for him in order to qualify for the revered Champions League berth.
