Terrible, really. So sad :-( Kudos to the ref, though: When it happened, I thought the Uru had just made a header. Good eyes. Unlike Maradona’s “hand of God” goal, this one was punished; well, according to the rules it was…

What a drama. This is the sort of thing you see only in the World Cup.

Ghana can keep their head held high. They are a team to watch, have cultivated their football talent the old fashioned way (from the ground up), and looking at what they did in this tournament (plus them winning the under20 WorldCup) they will be a very formidable team going ahead. Furthermore, they fought hard to the end. Great job Ghana.
I agree. For some reason, Ghana’s has always been a team that you don’t forget; for many years now. And they keep improving.

Ghana played an amazing game and they should be so proud of themselves. I think that, if things had gone their way today, they could’ve easily beat Holland on Tuesday and ended up in a Finals. Seriously - they were THAT GOOD!

Now they just need to work on their penalty kicks.

I knew they would not win the PKs, their goalie was not very good, so I knew Uruguay would have the advantage.

I thought the Ghanaian goalkeeper did a much better job today than Uruguayan one.
