catalyst2 | Game # 14 - Ghana vs USA (Reply)

Ghana was another side that I hoped were going to really make an impact, given their excellent 2010 World Cup record. This side just took too long to get into rhythm, probably at least a little disconcerted by the first US goal, coming after only 29 seconds. When they got into that rhythm at last, they certainly troubled the US repeatedly in the end of the first half and then start of the second half. Eventually Ghana got their long-deserved equalizer and that looked to be it, only for the US to score their winning goal just minutes later. Both sides looked good in the game with the US running a very slick passing game and Ghana all power and speed. If Ghana settles faster, they will be a really force to be reckoned with.
