FULL TIME + EXTRA TIME - Match #58 (QUARTER - FINAL #2) -

URUGUAY - 1


GHANA - 1


Oh my GOD!!

What a bunch of SUPERCHARGED 2-3 minutes to end Extra Time!!!


Wow!


Ghana were standing right in front of the Uruguayan goal and hit 3 times with the GK nowhere near and just TWO defenders standing in front! The first header was parried off, and the second thundering header was PALMED OFF by an Uruguayan defender who was promptly shown a straight RED CARD!

And the Ghana team got a PENALTY KICK!!!

Gyan, the most impressive Ghana player on show throughout the match, came forward to take the kick. And would you believe it?! He hit it straight up to the top bar of the goalpost, and the ball flew up and over!!!


Dare I say a jaw-dropping end to an extremely charged up 30 minutes of Extra Time!


We go into the Penalty Shootout, folks. Only the second time in this WC so far.
