Ayew brothers’ goals send Ghana through to AFCON semi-finals

Ghana’s Ayew brothers grabbed a goal each on Sunday for the Black Stars to beat DR Congo 2-1 and advance into the 2017 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) semi-finals.
Aston Villa’s Jordan Ayew opened scoring in the 62nd minute, curling the ball past Ley Matampi in the Leopards’ goal.
Paul-Jose M’Poku equalised for DR Congo with a sensational curling long-range effort from outside the penalty area.
West Ham’s Andre Ayew then coolly dispatched a winning penalty kick, sending Matampi the wrong way to seal the win in the 78th minute.
The win pitched the Black Stars against the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon in the semi-finals on Thursday.
