Black Stars captain, Andre Ayew scored a header for Le Havre on Wednesday night when the team suffered a 3-1 defeat to Racing Strasbourg in the French Cup.

Just nine minutes later, Andre Ayew scored to restore parity to the game to get his team back in the contest.

Unfortunately, that goal could not inspire Le Havre to complete a comeback.
