Ghana gears up to defeat England on Tuesday
By Masahudu Ankiilu Kunateh
Reports from Ghana's Black Satellites camp in Egypt have it
that the team is in upbeat mood following their 2-1 win over
Uzbekistan at the U-20 World Cup on Saturday.
The Black Satellites will log horns with their colonial
masters; the English U-20 side comes Tuesday.
However their next task is to beat an England team who is
licking their wounds after defeat at the hands of Uruguay.
Ghana came from a goal down on Saturday to beat the Uzbeks
who took the lead on at the start of the second half.
Ghana reacted and Ransford Osei drew them level on the hour.
Dominic Adiya scored Ghana's winner with 15 minutes
remaining.
Uzbekistan's goalkeeper Sanjar Kuvvatov let the ball slip
through his fingers as Adiyiah shot from 15 yards.
Ghana's coach Sellas Tetteh was happy with the way his team
performed but thinks there is still room for improvement.
England was defeated 1-0 by Uruguay in their first game and
badly need to make amends.
Uruguay substitute Tabare Viudez scored the only goal of
that game from a superb scissors kick.
Ghana currently top Group D on goal difference, but are
level on points with Uruguay.
