If your BP didn’t go up during this match, then I am sorry.
You missed out on all the drama served to us.
In our first match at the Mundial, Ghana showed the world they have a team ready to rock and roll on the big stage. It was no surprise that the first 45 minutes of this match were far different from the performance against the Portuguese.
Starting with a 4-3-3 line-up, Coach Otto Addo was clear on his intent for this match. Go all out for the three points. The Ghanaians took some time to gradually settle into the match. With the Koreans creating numerous chances, a lot of corners were conceded by the Black Stars early on in the game.
But the Stars held on to the early onslaught. and gradually settled into the game. Monday, November 28th, was the day Jordan Ayew silenced his critics. The son of Ghanaian legend, Abedi Pele, beautifully crafted two goal-scoring opportunities to give Ghana a two-goal lead heading into the halftime break.
In the second half, the table turned for a while, and the Black Stars allowed their opponents into the game. But at the end of the game, the Stars came out on top. Held on to claim all three points after staying strong during the 10 minutes of added time, which felt like a whole 45 minutes.
In two matches in Qatar, Ghana’s fixtures have produced 10 goals so far. more than any other team in the competition. even more than the attacking-sided Spain, which demolished Costa Rica by seven goals in their opening game.
With a record-breaking 32 passes leading to Mohammed Kudus’ goal against the Koreans, the Stars keep delighting us with one attacking performance after the other.
Finally, the first three points were bagged.
Next up: a chance to exorcise the ghost of 2010.
