World Cup Stunner: Ghana Beats Czechs 2-0
Ghana pulled off the biggest upset of this World Cup and might have helped the United States along the way. The first win for Africa in this tournament was a stunner, 2-0 over the same Czech Republic team that routed the Americans in their opener.
Asamoah Gyan scored in the second minute Saturday and the Ghanians peppered star goalkeeper Petr Cech before getting the clincher in the 82nd. With the victory, Ghana assured that the United States would not be eliminated from contention even with a loss later Saturday against Italy.
A U. S. win would put all four teams even at three points in Group E.
Sulley Muntari added the second goal after Cech made save after save. He seemed to have intimidated the shooters until Muntari sent a rocket of a shot into the upper right corner of the net with the Czechs down to 10 men.
