The Portuguese team with the exception of one or two players, generally have a small figure but they prefer to be quicker and could in a beat, outsmart you with a counter that would leave for the dead if you don’t step in to disrupt, sabotage their passing. They attack you faster than the speed with which you used in attacking them. There’s a great deal of mobility in their play, some show cheeky skills with 2 or 3 players having killer shots. (Our goal keeper and defenders must be alert, taking no chances from threats from their danger men. We must be highly technical in dealing with threats and frustrate them with high level of defensive skills when need be) The Portuguese mindset is to project themselves as geniuses over you but in reality, it is attempt to shield their fatal physical flaws and woeful strength weakness from being exploited.

On the ground, the Portuguese play football with finesse and normally would seek to be first to the ball. They make their passing and movement firm, quicker, purposeful when applying combo moves in attack. With somewhat evasive mobile runs, they can leave you for dead if you don’t concentrate and follow their runs for the 90minutes or take your eyes off dangerous spaces they want to run into. They play long shots with frequent individualism coming from 2 or 3 of their attackers. They tend to want to play a free flowing game if you open up the game, thus when you play expansive football. They have ambitious players who would like to go on adventure, searching relentlessly for a goal…

The Portuguese nonetheless, will come into this prime encounter with four strategies. First Strategy… is to start a barren match with intent to deliver the first deadly strike. They always want to be the first and if they can’t find a way through, they would go into adventure in certain unexpected areas and seek to exploit (Ghana must shut down the shops quickly in those areas). The second strategy… they would absorb all your attacks and as they are doing that, they are preparing a swift, surgical counter to plant the ball at the back your net. (Ghana should set out to be disruptive anytime the ball falls to the Portuguese in those situations.) The deadly potential of this Portuguese team is their ability to close their defensive page by opening an attacking page in a split-second that lands them inside your penalty box and what follows would be your end. (Ghana must not allow them time and space on the ball. We must press hard again and again and again, cut out passes or misdirect their passes with a toe poke aim to their danger man on the move, overcrowd their ball-holders etc). Their Third Strategy… is to deliver fine arching crosses that is aimed at finding their man at a heading or shooting spot inside your penalty box. (Our retreating defenders must be able to jump-head away balls whilst in flight) The fourth strategy which is even a tactic is their lofting of balls over your head into spaces and attacking lanes for their attackers to pounces, thus if you are pushing high up the park or their ground attack does not appear to working.

Now going into proceedings… from the BLAST of the whistle, Portugal will attack but with caution given What Ghana showed against Germany. They will be mostly surgical until they find a week spot in your defence where they would hammer there. Their top players will try to be incisive in trying to score (Ghana must defend intelligently and powerfully, disrupting their moves and keeping an eye on dead balls). Ghana MUST NOT unleash fire and brimstone on the Portuguese in first 5 minutes as that would sharpen the Portuguese defensive senses and unless you intend to dominate them from the beginning to the end, such strategy is NOT good. Nonetheless in those 5 minutes, Ghana must press harder with CAUTION, seek to recover the ball and punish the Portuguese with sheer power, explosive pace, dribbling and killer instinct. We must mean business, deny them space in our half. With our strikers initiating explosive runs, the stage could be set for further sustained killer onslaught on the Portuguese defence with wingers playing an active role. Mind you, here the Portuguese will resort to counter attacks but our midfielders and defenders should timeously move quickly move to snuff it out with power and intelligence. If Portugal is losing, we must be ready to counter attack fiercely and hard because they will open things up.
Ghana’s objective before the match is to go all out and win by a wider margin as much as possible. This task is achievable given that we beat Egypt 6:1 but we must have our key player WARIS on the pitch. It’s is crucial. Ghana’s Strategy is for players to stop any Portuguese player bringing the ball, hunt them down, fight them to regain the ball, close out the play, intercept passes and show them that with our strength, they would not be allowed to have their way of the grass and then from there our killers can be released with a pass for them to strike…lethal and irredeemable. Note that if you deny the Portuguese space and match them for speed, they are dead, they will not be to attack you anymore. If you power up you game, they become scared and easily confused so they all try to rush in numbers to defend for their lives anytime they come under powerful attack. The gap between their physical deficiencies and their skills is too wide so anytime is jarred powerfully, they lose their minds. That is why they always lose in key games. Their team cannot be discipline under the force of powerful attack and Ghana must let them taste more of that. This predicament the Portuguese has is the reason why one moment they can play so well if they’re allowed, and the next moment they can play so badly if they are not allowed. Their inability to win tournaments trophy is due to this innate problem they have.

Lastly, I cannot end without given keys to nullify Ronaldo. First of all, that thing about World Best Player of the year doesn’t concern us. It’s a fifa thing. The reality coming is what should concern us, thus the physical challenge… the running legs, the bodies, the head clashes, the evasive runs and firing shots… the general match-action and the dynamism in it.
Nonetheless for everybody’s sake we will analyze Ronaldo. Ronaldo will stretch you in a race, he is solid, runs faster on the ball if you play an EXPANSIVE OPEN GAME. In such a game, he will feel joy and run around to torment you. He can change the direction of his acceleration or while in full flight, shoot with both legs and even the head with a tall jump. However, he cannot play well when you’re highly technical OR you deny him breathing space on the ball OR Crowd him out OR Let him taste your physicality dominance. I must however warn that anytime he’s losing the battle free kicks and corners become is weapon of choice. Ghana must make sure that before any Portuguese set play, they keep their eye on their man. Immediately the set piece is taking, players must leave their man and GO FOR THE BALL - make sure your head or any part of their legal body is first to the ball to clear it away.
Beating Portugal must be done in whichever way possible so we need to let them feel our force, heat and killer blows

I'm Portuguese and a big Ghana fan since a long time ago. I should admit that Ghana plays a better football at this stage of the competition than Portugal and I'm sorry they couldn't beat Germany or the USA as they deserved to. Nevertheless, even though I'm Portuguese and I love my national team, I'm first a football fan and I think that Ghana has more chances to beat Portugal and to go through to the next stage than we do. Furthermore, Ghana deserves to go the next round as they've shown quality football which is not the case with Portugal. Therefore, I hope that Germany and the USA will play fair, and for sure Ghana-Portugal will be a fantastic game. Good luck Black Stars. All the best for this world cup.

A Ghanaian guy found himself unable to satisfy his wife. He tried hundreds of methods but just wasn't able to do the job. He finally went to his best friend and asked for advice. His friend told him not to worry because he knew a method that was 100% successful.

He says, "Hire a big strong American black man to stand near your bed and wave a huge towel over both of you while you are having sex. This way your wife will be stimulated and have an orgasm."

The Ghana guy hired the American strong man, but all efforts were in vain. He went back to his friend and told him what happened. So his friend suggested that they switch places.

"Why don't you wave the towel while the strong man does the job in bed," says the friend.

He agreed and said that he would do anything to satisfy his wife. He hires the same guy again and this time they trade positions. Naturally, the woman has a divine orgasm.

The Ghanaian husband leans over to the American black guy and says, "You see!! That's how you wave the towel."

Ghana should have qualified already by now. It's annoying that all African teams look like they're going to qualify apart from Ghana and Cameroon. What a shame especially with some of the 'big boy's leaving the tournament early. I don't believe AA should continue as our coach mainly because he doesn't know how to solve the problems which occur time and time again

I think passes to A. Gyan at the front should not be AIR balls,all passes to A. Gyan should be low, from shoulder level down and there should at least be one person following A.Gyan for second chance shots. Put the ball to the ground and stop this air balls where most players are taller than our boys.

Someone needs to tell these African teams to play as a team. U see, these Europeans and s. Americans don't involve strength. They understand that soccer is not about strength but simplicity, 1touch passing and teamwork(not giving up on plays and trusting each other). This is why we are seeing what we are seeing. it's not rocket science, folks!

The Ivorians got very complacent after they equalized, and one could see the penalty coming, the way they started to defend. It was just bound to happen. Total breakdown of the midfield after they equalized and in the dying minutes, a mistake was bound to be committed, which was exactly happened under the relentless pressure of the Greeks.

The Ivorians are playing as if the have been drugged. Where they have to pass they shoot and where they have to shoot they pass. Sometimes, I wonder if too much fufu and banku has blocked the thinking of Africans.

Gh Fuo, that was not a penalty? take your eyes out of your anus and watch the replay.

Just because you like Desaily and want him to coach Ghana does not mean you should blindly defend him. His prediction was wrong, (coach or no coach).

Don't blame the ref. It was a 100% penalty. The defender's leg hit the attackers foot, causing it to move behind his standing foot and trip him. If the defender hadn't touched him, the attacker would not have tripped. Try to be objective arsehole!

Big Joe, when the Desaily story broke, I mentioned that Ghana always outperforms Ivory coast. And I said even Nigeria outperforms Ivory coast - I have been proven right.

I can only ask these desperate players that they better start their shopping in Brazil to send things from Brazil to their friends and family members. They are a bunch which cannot die a little for their country. They should emulate the South and Central Americans. Noise makers.

Gyan: Ghana will give everything against Portugal
