Ghana Takes 2-1 Lead in Extra Time

The United States habit of giving up early goals and fighting their way back is going to have to continue as their match against Ghana in the Round of 16 moves to extra time. Asamoah Gyan scored for Ghana just three minutes into soccer’s equivalent of overtime leaving the Americans 27 minutes to tie or win the game. The US fought back to tie the game at one on a Landon Donovan penalty kick after allowing a goal to Ghana in the fifth minute of the game. Hopefully the comeback kids have another run in them.
