Ghanaian football brothers Andre Ayew and Jordan Ayew will no longer continue in the English FA Cup as their side Swansea City have been knocked out by Tottenham in the quarterfinals.

The game played at the Liberty Stadium on Saturday, March 16, 2018 had both Ayews missing in action. Jordan Ayew was suspended following his red card against Huddersfield last week in the English Premier League.

Andre Ayew, however, was not included in the 18-man squad.

Spurs opened the scoring in the 11th minute through Danish midfielder Eriksen. They doubled their lead on the stroke of half-time through Argentine winger Erik Lamela.
