in reference to:
"It was the second time in successive World Cups that Ghana had defeated the United States, having effectively dumped them out of the tournament four years ago by beating them in the final group game."
Ghana hit them with a devastating early burst just as they had done at the start of normal time, and the USA could not come back again once Asamoah Gyan's powerful strike beat Tim Howard for a second time. The host continent's last remaining representatives now go on to face Uruguay in the quarter-finals, and on this showing they may even have a chance, as long as they can tidy up their finishing and learn to score ordinary goals as well as spectacular ones.- World Cup Match Results: United States vs Ghana - FIFA World Cup 2010 - ESPN Soccernet (view on Google Sidewiki)
