Jordan Ayew scores as Kamaldeen’s Southampton sink deeper into relegation misery

Ghana captain Jordan Ayew scored a key goal for Leicester City. He played against his Black Stars teammate Kamaldeen Sulemana. This match was in the Premier League against struggling Southampton.

Ayew's goal came just before half-time at the King Power Stadium. It capped off a strong first-half performance by Leicester. Southampton, Kamaldeen's team, was left reeling once again.

Many believed this match could help Southampton escape their low points record. That record was set by Derby County in the 2007/08 season. However, the Saints failed to deliver yet again.

With only 11 points this season, Southampton is on track to match that record. They were outplayed even by second-bottom Leicester City. The team lacked urgency and showed no attacking edge—this has become a familiar issue.

Interim manager Simon Rusk now looks ahead to their trip to Everton. Everton is winless in their last three games. This may be Southampton's best chance to avoid Derby's fate, but it seems uncertain after their poor display against Leicester.

With league leaders Arsenal and a strong Manchester City coming up, time is running out for Kamaldeen and his teammates to regain some pride.
