Ghana 2 – 2 Germany
It was a game that lived up to the hype as Soccer and European powerhouse Germany got held in Brazil by African powerhouse the Black Stars of Ghana in their Group G (Group of Death) matchup in a game that most thought Ghana would lose and be out of the World Cup.
An interesting note is the outright presumptuous comment made by the ESPN commentator calling the Germany Vs Ghana game who was already looking ahead to the round of 16 for the US and Germany indicating the disrespect that is out there for the African continent and the African game.

Regardless the Ghanaians stood tall as Andre Ayew and Asamoah Gyan both netted to hold Germany to a draw and keep their hopes alive to make it to the next round of the Brazil 2014 World Cup.
Ghana sits at the third position with one point and the US is in the second spot with a crucial game against Portugal (who some have dismissed;) a game they expect the US to win and knock out the Black Stars in the process. However this is Football and its 11 on 11 and in this case everyone playing at this level is a professional to say the least and therefore presuming an outcome to any game at this level is outright foolishness.
