Ghana play better than their former Colonial masters

Ghanaians could not be criticised for having a wry smile at the demise of their formal Colonial masters at the 2010 Fifa World Cup Finals. With just over 50 years having elapsed since Ghanaian Independence, it is nice to note that Ghana were able to hold Germany to a single goal deficit while England succumbed 4-1. Forget that the ball bounced over the line, as England were beaten by the far better team and not robbed. The significance of the score line will not be lost on those who understand that past Colonial activity led to the introduction of football into Africa. Former tutor turned current master, as Ghana yet again rightfully takes its place on the World stage. From membership of the United Nations Peacekeeping force to the last 8 of the World Cup Quarter Finals, Ghana is there when it matters and when others are not. Go Ghana, Go
