Jordan Ayew<\/strong><\/p>\n

A resplendent second half goals from the Ayew brothers- Jordan and Dede were enough to see Ghana through to the quarter finals of the African Cup of Nations in Gabon yesterday.<\/p>\n

The 2-1 win pits the Avram Grant\u2019s men against their Cameroonian counterparts in an anticipated epic semi final on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The Black Stars survived an early scare when the Congolese probed with advancing goalkeeper Razak Briamah failing to make a first time clearance.<\/p>\n

Ghana dictated thereafter, with stand in captain Dede Ayew and his junior brother coming close to opening the scoring.<\/p>\n

Few minutes before recess, the Congolese appeared more aggressive; firing from all cylinders, but the Ghana rear provided much cover for Braimah.<\/p>\n

The one way traffic kept flowing in the Stars\u2019 favour after the break and two of the runs by the Ayew brothers nearly resulted in the opener.<\/p>\n

The last time the two met at the last four stage was when Ghana hosted the 26th edition in Accra in 2008.<\/p>\n

It was Aston Villa forward, the younger Ayew, who opened the scoring in the 64th minute when he utilizes a Mubarak Wakaso through pass to fire past goalkeeper Matampi.<\/p>\n

The Congolese replied few minutes later with a terrific strike from Mpoku.<\/p>\n

The Ghanaians pressured which resulted in a penalty after dribbling winger Christian Atsu was fouled.<\/p>\n

Skipper for the day, Dede converted it perfectly to restore Ghana\u2019s lead.<\/p>\n
