Speaking after the game, Vieira said that it was disappointing for Jordan to fluff the opportunity that could have given Palace the needed win.
The former Arsenal captain says he is going to work with Jordan Ayew on how he can regain his confidence and fire more for Palace.
“Jordan was like every other player, everybody was really disappointed not to take the three points.
“Obviously Jordan missing the chance was important but when he doesn’t score, especially a forward, here is a lack of confidence and self-belief. It is my responsibility to bring him back to what he can do and scoring goals,” Vieira said after the game.
Jordan who is yet to score a goal this has meanwhile been called up for the Black Stars game against Zimbabwe.
Coach Milovan Rajevac’s for the two World Cup qualifiers feature Jordan Ayew and his brother Andre Dede Ayew who plies his trade in the UAE.
The two are likely to lead the line for the Black Stars.
