EPL: Swansea 1-1 Everton
Jordan Ayew's half-volley earned Swansea a point at the Liberty Stadium
Jordan Ayew rescued a point for Swansea as their dominant display could only muster a 1-1 draw at home to a lacklustre Everton side.
For all of Swansea's early endeavour, Everton took the lead in fortuitous circumstances just before half-time when Kyle Naughton inadvertently headed the ball into his own goal (43).
The hosts levelled after the break through Ayew (71), who marked his return from a three-match suspension with a fine half-volley into the far corner.
Seamus Coleman and Tammy Abraham spurned opportunities for both sides late on as the match ended all square, leaving Swansea five points above the relegation zone with five games remaining.
Swansea started brightly, but were denied twice in quick succession as Jordan Ayew saw an attempt deflect wide off Leighton Baines before Federico Fernandez's header was cleared off the line by Cenk Tosun from the resulting corner.
Moments later, a smart flick from Jordan Ayew played his brother, Andre, through on goal, but his shot on the stretch was comfortably saved by Jordan Pickford.
For Everton's opener, Lukasz Fabianski had got down well to keep out Yannick Bolasie's half-volley, but his save from Idrissa Gueye's follow-up ricocheted off Naughton's head and bounced over the line before Alfie Mawson could clear - it took a check of the watch to tell referee Lee Mason it was indeed a goal.
Pickford then denied Swansea twice in the opening stages of the second half, first flying to his right to keep out Tom Carroll's header before then standing tall to keep out Andre Ayew's attempt.
Swansea's pressure eventually paid off, for moments after Mawson's header was cleared off the line, Carroll picked out Jordan Ayew out wide, with the striker calmly chesting the ball down before sending a sweet strike beyond Pickford's grasp.
Both sides missed chances to score a winner, with Coleman's close-range effort striking the bar before Abraham fired well over from eight yards out.
