USA Defeats Ghana - Revenge!!

We finally got revenge for all the pain and suffering Ghana has caused us over the past 8 years. When I finished eating lunch and went back to my room to watch the game, the U.S. had already scored. Dempsey and Jermaine Jones combined. Dempsey drove past a defender, and he struck a low left footed shot to the far post. This was the fastest U.S. goal in world cup history, with an official time of 34 seconds After that, it was all Ghana. They had the ball a lot of the time after the goal, with Atsu providing the main threat down the right hand side. The U.S. then lost a vital player for them with a strained hamstring. It was Jozy Altidore, the man who was just getting back into form after a torrid season with Sunderland. Aaron Johaansen was then brought on. At half time, Besler came off after hurting his hamstring a little bit. The U.S. bench said it was just precautionary, but it was still a worry for them. John Brooks then came on. The second half was then controlled by Ghana, who finally broke open the resolute U.S. defense. Gyan provided a backheel, which was in stride for Jordan Ayew, who buried it past Tim Howard. No one could guess what happened next. Zusi delivered a corner in the 86th minute, and John Brooks headed home. This is a moment the young defender would remember till the day he dies. He went from zero to hero in a matter of seconds. When the final whistle blew, the whole country blew a huge sigh of relief.
