As a Ghanaian, I have to say: The Black Stars were pretty bad. Was disappointed with the way Cape Verde were delaying in the first half when the score was 0-0. The keeper would drop the ball, wait for Gyan to approach and then pick it up. And it took them forever to get in throw-ins. Next time they should not try to settle for a draw hoping to beat a team on penalties. Also about the penalty, I thought it was a bad challenge. The CV player obviously pushed Gyan off the ball. Gyan was the one with position, and the CV player just pushed him off the ball without actually touching the ball. I don't see how that was not a penalty. I however have to congratulate CV. They were excellent and deserved to go through but domination don't win matches. Same with Barca and Chelsea, Barca dominated, Chelsea defended and won. However, Ghana was just god-awful.
Can't wait for tomorrow's game: Nigeria 1-1 CIV. Penalties will settle the score.

Ghana was lucky.
Cape Verde has a great future in soccer competitions if they keep their current strides going.

It's always a good sign when a team plays badly and still wins, I can actually see Ghana winning the whole tournament. I am predicting a Ghana vs Ivory Coast final!!

Lol.. Goalkeepers of teams that are desperate for an equalizer usually join the go forward, for corner kicks.

YES! no problem with that. But just incase there's a counter-attack, at least 2 of his players should be stationed in his own (keepers) half of the field.

Anyway, congratulations to Ghana sha.

He gambled thinking that would be the final play of the game. So instead of an equalizer they concede another goal.
Re: Ghana Vs Cape Verde - AFCON 2013 - (2 - 0) On 2nd February 2013 by Nobody: 8:11pm On Feb 02, 2013
OmoEziokwu: Poor refereeing killed the game. There were two penalty chances that were not given Cape Verde, especially the second one where the Ghanaian defender tripped and fell on the Cape Verdian attacker near the side edge of the 18 yard box. A rather weak Ghanaian team I would say.

The first half Ghana dominated but I will admit this was not Ghana best game because they were playing a team with nothing to loose and those are dangerous teams.

Ironi:

I agree with you 100%.

A football nation of 160M human resources and can't get 11 players, useless.

Nigeria should be having 10 sets of soccer teams capable of winning the world cup. cool cool cool cool cool cool cool cool

So how many should China, India and USA have then if it is population that determines the quality of a team?

I am watching the SA Vs Mali Match and I am blushing that we don't have one real older/experienced player like Keita, Adebayor, Drogba etc in this tournament to turn our fortunes around when the chips are down....May be I need to watch out for a Yobo,a Mikel or an Uche tomorrow..

Meanwhile, the SA Goal keeper just kept SA in the game by blocking a Malian shot from an acute angle. this might go down the wire for both teams but right now, the Malians are dictating the pace of the game unless some poor officiating or some last minutes turnaround like we've seen in the knock-out stages otherwise we are in for a long night.

Cape Verde gave a good account of themselves. African football looks promising with countries like Cape Verde.
Great team that challenge other African national teams to sit up. Motivating
