Ghana international Jordan Ayew scored his third goal of the Premier League season on Monday night in Crystal Palace stalemate against Everton.

The Eagles were held to a 1-1 draw at Goodison Park as their winless run extended to three games since beating Sheffield United last month.

Ayew scored from a long-range effort in the 66th minute of the game after receiving a pass from Jean-Philippe Mateta.

However, Palace were unable to take all three points as Amadou Onana scored for the Toffees with six minutes away from the full-time whistle to tie the game.

The goal against Everton was Ayew's third of the campaign having scored twice in his previous 22 appearances for the club.

The forward also has five assists in the Premier League to his name this campaign.

Following the end of the game, Ayew paid a glowing tribute to Roy Hodgson, who announced his decision to step down from his role as manager of the side earlier in the day.

"When we speak about Roy I have goosebumps because he's been so good to me and he's been a top manager, a top man," emotional Ayew said.

"He helped me a lot and made me improve as a football player and as a man as well. I can't thank him enough."
