Andre and his brother Jordan helped Marseille to beat Evian TG
Andre and Jordan Ayew scored both goals for Olympique Marseille who defeated Evian TG 2-1 on Saturday in a pre-season friendly. 

It was Andre who opened the scoring for Elie Baup's side in the 15th minute mark with a diving header. 

Jordan came off the substitute bench in the second half to claim victory for Marseille with a spot-kick. 

Andre, still recovering from his shoulder injury, was handed a starting role on the flanks and he prodded in the first goal from an Amalfitano cross.

Compatriot Rabiu Mohammed was involved in the sequence of play that brought about Evian's leveller on the 25th minute mark. 

The two sides staged a battle to claim superiority in the game and it was Marseille who finally won it.

Attacker Mathieu Valbuena made light work of two Evian defenders before being fouled inside the box. 

Jordan stepped up and expertly dispatched the spot-kick on 84 minutes to claim the win for Marseille. 

France-born Ghanaian Kevin Osei watched the entire game from the Marseille bench.
