Jordan Ayew was in action for his new club Aston Villan on Saturday afternoon.

The Ghana international played full duration of the game in Tim Sherwood's side's 3-3 drawn game with Nottingham Forest.

England midfielder Scott Sinclair netted an impressive hat-trick for Aston Villa, but Nottingham Forest came from 3-1 down to steal a draw in the final minutes at the City Ground.

Dexter Blackstock gave Forest the lead inside the first minute before Scott Sinclair equalised midway through the half.

The Villa winger then netted twice more after the interval to complete an impressive display, but the home side had the last laugh when Henri Lansbury pulled one back and Kelvin Wilson levelled in the dying stages.
