That goal gave Ghanaians hope and strength especially to Mohammed Kudus who started a one-man show.

The Ajax Amsterdam Golden Boy doubled the lead for Black Stars in the 34th minute to help Otto Addo’s side lead by 2-0 at the break.

But Ghana’s defensive problems resurfaced in the second half when South Koreans showed a more offensive football.

They scored two goals in just three minutes and Cho gue-Sung was the man on target on both occasions (58′ & 61′).

Otto Addo changed the speech from the touchline and his message has been heard by the players on the pitch as they did everything to score a third goal.

And again Mohammed Kudus was the man to rescue Black Stars as he converted the second assist of Jordan Ayew in the game.

Ghana deservedly won the game 3-2 and will play a ‘final’ against Uruguay on their last group stage game in order to secure their place for the next round.
