André Ayew celebrates after scoring for Le Havre
André Ayew continued his impressive form since joining Le Havre, leading his team to a crucial victory against Lens on Saturday, March 1, 2025.
The 35-year-old started on the bench in Le Havre’s 4-1 defeat to Toulouse but was handed a starting role against a Lens side chasing European football.
Lens wasted no time asserting their dominance, with goals from El Aynaoui and Ruben Aguilar putting them 2-0 up within the first 19 minutes, piling further misery on Le Havre’s survival hopes.
However, a sensational performance from Ayew helped Le Havre claw their way back before halftime. He set up Soumaré Issa, who netted his third Ligue 1 goal of the season to halve the deficit.
Just five minutes later, Ayew rose highest to guide the ball into the bottom corner, making it 2-2 on the night.
That goal marked Ayew’s fifth of the 2024/25 Ligue 1 season, just one shy of the total he managed in his debut season for Le Havre.
Despite a spirited second-half effort from Lens, goals from Casimir Josue and a 90th-minute penalty by Hassan Ahmed secured all three points for Le Havre, who are now just two points away from the safety zone.
