Ghana you have made us all proud

So Brazil keep their record intact of not conceding a goal against an African side in World cup, a very professional performance by Brazil which saw them win by 3 goals to nil, the score line which I believe doesn’t do justice to Ghana’s performance.

Brazil started strongly when Ronaldo scored early after breaking an offside trap. And in the process scored the most number of goals by any player in world cups combined, amazing. Ghana then settled well and played great football putting brazil in lot of pressure. They should have gone forward twice idlest, first in 35th minute when Asamoah Gyan should have scored after a mistake by Brazilian defense and then a very bad luck for John Mensah when in 42nd minute his header from a corner hit Dida’s foot rather then other way around. If that would have gone in I am sure match would have exploded and it would have been a thriller but unfortunately in this world cup fairy tales are far and few.

But when Brazil scored the second (controversially) and it seemed all over for Ghana. Their coach was sent off in half time for protesting over the goal but they were still searching for one goal to give them any chance before Brazil sealed off with a peach of a goal. Ok I should finish this now, being writing it since hour with break after every minute , grrrrrrrrr.

Ghana played a wonderful tournament they made many new fans and delighted us all with their breathtaking though broke my heart with a win on Czechs. They will be ruining their missed opportunities and huge amount of bookings, I hope they work on both of them and be consistent in their performance.
