- Leicester City came from behind to secure a 1-1 draw at Ipswich Town on Saturday
- Jordan Ayew managed to score in injury-time after Leif Davis’ opener
- The forward felt that a draw was a fair result
- It was a second successive away goal from Ayew after netting at Southampton
The Ghanian came off the bench to net a stoppage-time equaliser and rescue a late point in Suffolk for the Foxes, who were behind early in the second half courtesy of Leif Davis’ stunning strike.
A potentially significant result away from home, especially following defeats to Nottingham Forest and then Manchester United in the Carabao Cup, it moves Leicester onto 10 points from their opening 10 Premier League games.
“It was a crazy moment and important to go away with something,” the forward stated following full-time. “It was a very difficult game, but I think it was an even game. Ipswich did really well, we did well as well, but sometimes you need a bit of luck and we got that bit of luck at the end of the game.
“It’s massive. Especially when you've lost two games, to get something out of this game was positive. Obviously, we wanted to win the game, but when you can't win, we say you don't lose and on to the next one.
“The point is a positive thing because we fought back and it's important to have that type of spirit in the Premier League, because the Premier League is not easy, it's a difficult league. It's very difficult and ruthless as well, so we're happy with that point, I think it is a fair result.”
Having seen a previous effort saved, Ayew remained calm under pressure once more showing composure to collect Boubakary Soumaré’s pass and then exchange a quick one-two with Jamie Vardy before finishing past Arijanet Muric.
“That's why you do finishing in training,” he explained. “To know how to handle this type of situation and I'm happy because it went in, I had the first one and it was cleared off the line and the second one went in. I'm really, really pleased and it's good for confidence.
“It's good for us as a squad as well for confidence and we keep on fighting. We knew that this season would not be easy, we will have some ups and downs and it's part of the journey, so on to the next one.
“I guess in those eight minutes of added on time. I thought we would get another chance; it fell on me and I'm pleased to have taken it. I'm always a positive person, I'm always positive in my mind, I believe so much in myself and I believe so much in the team as well.”
The Blue Army have certainly taken to the 33-year-old since his summer arrival, with Ayew’s chant again being sung loud and proud in the away end at Portman Road following his introduction and subsequent impact on proceedings.
He added on the fans' support: “It gives me a bit more desire, more energy to work harder, to do well for the team, for the Club, for the fans as well, because the Club have been good to me. They brought me in, and they've been really good to me since I've been in.
“The only thing I can do is to repay it on the pitch, and that's what I try to do. And obviously, the fans and the players have welcomed me so well and the only thing you can do is just to perform on the pitch when you have the opportunity.”
