Black Stars Skipper Andre Ayew registered his first and second goals in style for French side Le Havre in the French Ligue Un against Lorient in a three-all draw at the Stade du Monstoir in matchweek 19.
Ayew was introduced in the 70th minute, replacing Daler Kuzyaev for the remainder of the minutes in the second half of the game, at the time, Lorient had a two-goal lead over Le Havre.
The 34-year-old attacker made an instant impact in the 85th minute when he connected from a fine cross from French forward Nabil Alioui to pull one back for Le Havre.
Old habits die hard for Lorient though, as they had their advantage cruelly snatched away from them five minutes from time when André Ayew announced his return from the Africa Cup of Nations by heading home a leveller.

It was Andre Ayew at it again in the dying embers of the game pouncing in the dying moments with an overhead kick to ensure the spoils were shared.
Andre Ayew saw only 77 minutes of football at the ongoing Africa Cup of Nations in Cote D’Ivoire after coming on against Mozambique and Cape Verde in the opening game.
On the flip side, he has grabbed his first two goals for his club side after the poor showing at the AFCON.
