Jordan Ayew’s dramatic late goal sealed a stunning 3-2 comeback win for Leicester City over Southampton in the Premier League.

The Ghana international scored his first league goal for the club in the 98th minute, completing a remarkable turnaround after Leicester trailed 2-0 at halftime.

Ayew credited his instinctive play for the match-winning goal, stating, “It was my natural instincts. As Premier League players, we need to improvise in certain situations, and that’s what I did. Sometimes you work on it in training, and it doesn’t happen in the game, but this time, it worked.”  

The Ghana forward described the moment as “special,” highlighting the significance of scoring his first league goal for Leicester since joining the club this summer. “I believe in myself, and I believe in my abilities. I know I can bring a lot to the team,” he added.

The thrilling victory was fueled by the impressive performance of fellow Ghanaian forward Abdul Fatawu Issahaku, who came off the bench to provide an assist and win a penalty.

Ayew’s late goal secured three crucial points for Leicester City, solidifying his potential as a key player for the Championship winners in the Premier League this season.
