omg! i feel so bad, this hurts much more than Nigeria's exit. i was so sure that Ghana would win. and they came so close, then gave it away. what a pity.

i also thought the ball had crossed the goal line until the referee gave suarez the red card. it would be such a shame if replays eventually show that it was a goal. maybe the coach shouldn't even have brought Adiyah on for Muntari, at least he would have been better at the penalty. and Kevin Boateng would have been a better choice than both Mensah and Adiyah too.  but it was Gyan that lost the match, he had no business missing that penalty. that was a one in a million chance, he must be the unhappiest person this night. he got Ghana into the QFinals and prevented them from going into the Semis.

Completely agree.

God gave Ghana victory on a plate and they threw it away.

Omo, no be small thing oh! The entire nation of 23 million is on suicide watch right now. Reports reaching us says UN has dispatched a plane load of grief councilors to start mediating immediately.
President Barack Obama ordered units and assets from the Marines, Air Force, Navy, Army, and Coast Guard to jump into action. "I've made it clear to each of these leaders that Ghana must be a top priority for their departments and agencies right now to console the people"

the whole african continent rested on Ghana 's shoulder and they clearly were the best african team in this tournament . . . . . . . . unfortunately it wasnt meant to be.
the match was theirs to take and they failed, Uruguay got their chance and they didnt miss!
what a nice way to fukc up a seemingly great friday night!

Is Africa jinxed not to pass the quaterfinal of any world cup? Did Ghana not train for penalty shoot outs? Why was Kingston diving from Acrra to Kumasi all the time, even before the kick was taken. And Messah's kick was typical of Yakubu's mentality.

i also think he should have taken a penalty. maybe he hasn't gotten over his FA cup final miss yet.

ajadudu:

Guys wait o, did you guys notice Mensah could not read a simple speech at the start of the game? How dem give the guy that kind mental assignment nah! It just messed up his rhythm for the rest of the game, hence the back pass of a penalty. Whitey had this planned, give the negro some mental activity at the start of the game to throw him off!  grin

grin grin grin  i noticed! he really struggled through that short speech, couldn't even pronounce racism. i doubt if he can even remember to feel embarrassed about that now.


Tuyis:

Sometimes God rewards people who doesn't deserve it. when I know why, I would have known the secret behind the universe.

When both sides were praying before the penalty shootout i was wondering whose would be effective. i guess God answered Ghana's initial prayers and after they blew their chance away he turned to Uruguay.

What a big SHAME!!! Just saw the highlights of the match. Fell asleep, so I missed most of it live. The game was handed to the Ghanaians at the last minute, if only GYAN had scored that penalty. I felt so sorry for them!!!  This is how you know the men from the boys. What kind of high penalty kick was that?! Painful match to watch. Thank goodness say I no bother tongue.

Arrgggghhh! I ain't Ghanian but this has gotta hurt! African players can pick very wrong times to phock up! Suarez just saved the Uruguayans with that foul and what was Mensah thinking?? All these players wey think say ball na by muscle who still takes spot kicks like that?? Adiyiah for Muntari was also a bad move but hey hindsight is 20/20 what else can be said they gave it their all! One just wonders if Africa would ever win the WC
Re: Ghana Vs Uruguay: [2 - 4] On Penalties After [1 - 1] Draw @ World Cup 2010 by Tweety121(f): 12:36am On Jul 03, 2010
Sometimes I'm afraid of the African blood that runs through my veins. This lack of excellence at the top is scary.

And South Americans just keep spoiling football for everyone, they stopped Japan from progressing, and now Ghana. Why should three of their teamsn be in the semi-finals? If Brazil had gone through today it would have have been four out of six. So as usual its Europe vs South America in the later stages. There should be some kind of law against this continent-bias

Ghana had every opportunity to win this game but the white man used his magic again.

Yes we can. This Ghana team had determination, born of youth and a need to prove a point, and luck but lacked wizardry, for want of a better word, as did Brazil. I don't believe they were the best bunch of players of the African contingent but they were the  most determined and lukiest. But they say luck favors the brave, and these young guns were certainly brave. I felt Ghana were good enough to beat Uruguay and they proved it but ran out of luck. All this Ghana team needs now is more African type skill, the samba thing Brazil has but did not show this world cup. If they add this and if European clubs dont burn out the players then there is no reason why they, Ghana cant cant  do better next world cup.


Still, i do believe the Eagles were a more skillful  team but lacked heart and rub of the green.

Ghana has not be destined to take africa to semi final.they have it in there hands and the blew it away.what a pity poor Ghana
Re: Ghana Vs Uruguay: [2 - 4] On Penalties After [1 - 1] Draw @ World Cup 2010 by maedan(f): 12:43am On Jul 03, 2010
Lol @ all the white-man, European/South American vendatta bullsh#t tongue. If Africans play good football, they should go as far as their legs can take them. We haven't been playing that long in the big league, it's always been the South Americans or the Europeans. Put it down to lack of experience, and stop blaming FIFA or some oyibo conspiracy. Is it not in your presence that USA went home, even England?? So why shouldn't AFrica - sorry, Ghana, lose??  ROTF. In a way I'm happy they are out, we for no hear word for the next four years.

Ghana tried but bottom line is African teams are hard to support, you'll just faint, get heart attack, lose your voice, get head ache and much more.
