Uruguay wins Ghana by 4-3 in Penalty shootout

Uruguay 4-2 Ghana (Penalty shootout)

The one and only representative of Africa, GHANA, started up with lots of hope in the  Soccer city stadium, Johannesberg. 

Both team are searching for the goal and a way to find out thru Semi-Final.

Tempers are starting to flare as Fucile just received a yellow card in 20th min for fouling Muntari. Fucile will miss the team's next match if they advance. 

If Ghana are to advance, they will need to concentrate better. They are making countless errors on defense and Kingston won't be able to stop every shot.  

Uruguay have had six corners already, this is a very dangerous team on set pieces. 

The Black Stars are starting to get their fans into the game. The crowd and vuvuzelas have gotten louder each minute.  Ghana is starting to look more cohesive on offense. Gyan had a beautiful strike that almost went in. 

There is a lot of mind games being played as Ghana's players are making fun of Uruguay's consistent flops.

 GOAL, Muntari scores an unbelievable goal. The shot must have been from at least 35 yards out. Now Ghana takes the lead in the 45+2 min of added time by 1-0.

 The crowd cheers and celebrating till the half time.. The cheering moment for Ghana not remains longer. Exactly after10 min with the start of from half time, GOAL by  Diego Forlan Corazo at 55 min. This game isn't short of dramatic moments. Forlan strikes a beautiful curling free kick past Kingston. 

Here the match is drawn, by 1-1.

This match is really starting to open up as both teams are starting to round into form. Uruguay hasn't come back in World Cup match to win since 1966. This could be another classic game. 

Back to back opportunities from both teams. This game has been going at a relentless pace.

Alright everyone, looks like this one is going into extra time!! Should be two more exciting 15 minute periods and possibly even a nailbitting round of penalties.

Same happens in the last. The Extra time added, in the last minute of the game there is a sure goal from Ghana, but the striker of the Uruguay, Luis Suarez,reflected it with his left hand and gets a RED CARD and sent him out the ground. Also Ghana gets the penalty in the last min of the extra time. Every body is cheering for the Ghana and the AFRICA. 

But the time is not in their's side, Asamoah Gyan misses the Penalty. Finally the match is turned to the Penalty shootout. 

Muslera, the Uruguay's goalkeeper, saves 2 penalty and gives the victory for Uruguay. 

Uruguay wins Ghana by 4-2. Also enters in the final 4 of the championship.
