Marseille striker Ayew replaced the injured Abdul Majeed Waris after just six minutes and broke the deadlock within 10 minutes of his arrival.

Asamoah Gyan doubled the Black Stars' advantage a minute before half-time.

Ayew put the result beyond doubt with a third goal eight minutes into the second half and then sealed his treble a minute from time.
