Ghana deputy captain Andre Ayew won the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations top scorer prize with three goals.

The Olympique Marseille man also doubled as the player with the highest number of assists.

Ayew converted a spot-kick in the 2-1 defeat to Senegal in their opening Group C match and registered a trademark header in the comeback 2-1 win over South Africa in the final Group match.

He was set up by striker Kwesi Appiah and directed the pass into the net for the third goal in the 3-0 semi-final win over Equatorial Guinea.

Ayew was presented with the Pepsi highest scorer prize minutes after the final.
