Suez, Oct 9, GNA - Ghana's Black Satellites revelled in a five-goal thriller that saw Korea Republic scoring twice in the FIFA U-20 World Cup quarterfinal game at the Mubarack Stadium in Suez.

A brace from Dominic Adiyiah, who has now scored six times in fives games and another from Ransford Osei helped to book Ghana a place in the semi-finals despite a late fight back by the Asians.

Ghana tamed the Asians from the onset and Adiyiah set the tone for the match by forcing a low save from Kim Seung-Gyu less than a minute into the game.

The Koreans almost took the lead in five minutes when Kim Young-Gwon missed the target from 12 yards after the Satellites defence mishandled a corner-kick.

But the Satellites were to react and three minutes on, Adiyah sent Ghana ahead when Samuel Inkoom playing at the right hand of attack perfectly picked out the striker with a low cross in the box.

The striker connected past goalkeeper Kim Seung-Guy to record Ghana's fastest goal in the two-week old Championship.

Inspired by the goal, Ghana took control of the team and when skipper Andre Ayew played in a great ball for Osei moments later, the striker headed just wide at the far post but soon the FC Twenty player was to make amends. When David Addy who was later replaced by Ghandy Kassenu advanced at the left flanks and found Osei lurking in the six-yard box, the striker consolidated Ghana's advantage with an unusual left-footed finish in 28 minutes.

The goal arrived at a time the Asians seemed to be enjoying their best spell of the game.

But swiftly, the Asians turned the disappointment into positives by pulling a goal back when Park Hee-Seong took advantage of indecision by goalkeeper Daniel Agyei and Daniel Opare to plant into the net a header. With the half drawing to a close, Emmanuel Agyemang-Badu was unlucky to have had his header from Addy's corner cleared off the line by Yun Suk-Young.

The Koreans came from recess a better side and Seo Jung-Jin almost pulled parity when he called Agyei to duty when he beat Addy down the line to fire a low shot which the goalkeeper pushed to corner.

Ghana took charge again and Rabiu Mohammed, returning from suspension picked up a loose ball in midfield, squared it to Adiyiah who powered through a forest of legs before scoring the African Champions third. But five minutes on, Ghana was stunned when Yun Suk-Young crossed deep for Kim Dong-Sub who timed his run perfectly beat a supposed offside trap to glance home a header that was to get Satellites jittery.

Ghana would play Hungary who beat Italy 3-2 in other quarterfinal game in Suez, in the semi-final
