No Pressure, No Diamond or Gold, finished! Win or Go home, Knockout stage round two starts NOW!!

Is this satellite team the most deft or daft in the tournament, in the 18 box I mean, in terms of clinical higher conversion rate finishing? Tweaaaa!

All the players except one or two have a problem with their first touch when recieving a pass. That is a huge problem which deconstructs the rythym in our build up and counter attacks. Sellas need to make the team work on that weakness. - whatever

Can the team hold on to balls until help or teammates arrive? Are the players technically skilled? Why are people saying that the center defender is a suspect? Don't get us twisted because we also want the players to win.

The real under 20 WC tournament starts from NOW; four matches, win or go home! But then...

I hope some one will call Sellas Tetteh and talk sense into his brain.Egypt has let Ghana into thru the back door. His boys played in the group stage as if fufu has taken the greater part of their brain. They all indulged in selfish football especially the strikers. They forgot how to pass the ball. They all ran with the ball until knocked down by their opponents. This is not joking football. This tournament is the weakest U20 tournament I have ever seen. Anybody can win it.

Here is my prediction of the squad and the formation Portugal U-20 Coach, Edgar Borges, will use to face Ghana. It wouldn't be that different from the squad he used against Nigeria except the formation.

Goalkeeper:
Jose Sa

Defenders:
Joao Cancelo
Tiago Ferreira
Mica
Edgar or Tiago Ilori

Midfielders:
Joao Mario
Ricardo Alves
Andre Gomes or To Ze

Forward:
Bruma
Richardo
Aladje

If I were in Coach Borges' shoes, I would love to pull a fast one on Coach Appiah by applying a 4:3:3 formation to get early 2 goals since Ghana U-20 usually doesn't start well at the beginning of their matches. After that convert the formation to a 4:3:1:2 formation for Bruma to become a Play Maker to serve the other two strikers and also to help the 3 original midfielders.

Now, this is a tip for Sellas Tetteh. If he solely concentrate on FC Aprillia's striker, Aladje, whom is not as slippery as both Ricardo and Bruma, this coming Wednesday would end our dreams in moving forward. Remember, Egypt will not be there to help us anymore.

How can we capitalized this 4-3-3 formation? Simple but not easy. Use the 4-4-2 formation to begin the match. This would solidify our midfield and would allow us to keep more possession in the midfield than the opponent. With this formation too, our midfielders wouldn't get tired quickly like it happened in the match against France. France took advantage of our lack of stamina and by applying our 4-4-2 formation against Portugal's 4-3-3 formation, Portugal will be the ones to chase the balls but not us. Finally, this formation will help us to defend better and as well use our defense into attacking in a heart beat through counter attacks.

After the team is settled, then we could convert a 4-4-2 diamond formation into a 4-3-3 formation during attacking. After two goals advantage, frustrate Portugal with a 4-5-1 formation by taking out a striker and bringing in another midfielder.

Keep this in mind, Sellas, for your first match almost messed things up for us. We believe in you and so don't let us down.

Ghanaian teams usually improve on their play as the tournament progresses and so it is hoped that the Black satellites will up their game against Portugal, a very formidable opponent.

Portugal has a very good team like Spain so this is the time Sellas will have no choice but to go with his best team. The team he used against Spain during the group stage will do the job. We need the best result we could get against Portugal because after this match, the way to the finals is though tough but a little bit clearer. Don't forget, this was the team that beat Nigeria 3-2 in the open Group "B" match.

You can't miss this match and we can't afford to depend on any other team to win for us. It is either we bring it or we go home.

Hello the sagacious Slimzay "The Unshakeble Shaker". I think Sellas Tetteh"s boys will win the trophy. The match against France was unfortunate and partly experimental. The coach , being a wise coach immediately changed the strategy for the game against Spain unfortunately we lost by a 1-0 margin. There is no consistently reliable logic in football. Luck could sometimes be the deciding factor. Nevertheless, the coach with the flexible tactical acumen and game plan invariably wins the trophy. If Portugal plays the 4-3-3 we should counter them with the 3-5-2 formation for the first 30 minutes rhen shift to the 3-6-1 if we have a 2-goal lead by that time. The U20 boys should not allow Portugal to take the lead. In case of an early lead by Portugal we should use the 3-5-2 cum 3-3-4 to equalize.If we carry a 2-goal lead to the second half we could play that Sellas" formation---the one he used against Brazil in the previous tournament.
May Ghana win the Trophy under Divine Grace in a perfect Way.

Egypt picked up their first win of the FIFA U-20 World Cup, with goals from Trezeguet and Ahmed Hassan, but the 2-0 scoreline sees both them and England exit Turkey 2013.

England dominated for large periods of the game, but were punished for spurning numerous chances to guarantee a place in the knockout stages.

Harry Kane went close to opening the scoring inside the first minute, rising high to head just wide. It was a sign of how the early stages would play out. Despite Egypt looking the more comfortable in possession, England carved out the better opportunities.

Larnell Cole and Conor Coady had both tested Awad Mossad before the Young Pharaohs keeper pulled off a stunning stop to keep the score level. A fine cross from John Stones found Ross Barkley at the back post, but his left-footed volley was superbly tipped around the post.

Kane had a further two chances, dragging a shot wide after good work from Cole before miscuing a header as England squandered their dominance in the first-half. The pattern continued into the second period too, with Cole doing well to beat Mohamed Samir, only to fire tamely at Mossad. Barkley's shot from the resulting corner was anything but tame, however it went narrowly over.

Egypt had failed to draw a meaningful save from Samuel Johnstone by the hour mark, but they continued to look the most commanding in possession as England relied more on striking on the break.

The Three Lions went closest after quick feet from Alex Pritchard drew a foul from Ramy Rabia on the edge of the Egypt area. Eric Dier took the resulting free-kick, but his effort crashed off the bar.

Time was ticking down, a burst forward from Refat Ahmed saw the African champions burst to life, as Thomas Thorpe blocked his shot. However, after England had threatened for so long, they were made to pay for their missed opportunities. Great skill from Trezeguet saw him beat Coady on the the left corner of England's area, before curling sublimely beyond Johnstone.

Kane then summed up England's night as he directed a free header at Mossad with six minutes to go, before skewing the rebound wide with the goal gaping. Egypt rounded off their night in the final minute as a counter-attack left Ahmed Hassan to roll the ball into the corner to cap off the victory

The result sees Egypt leapfrog England into third, but Ghana's superior number of goals scored means it is not enough to reach the last 16.

Just imagine this: Had Egypt scored one more goal to beat England 3-0, Egypt would have qualified and not Ghana. Had England beaten Egypt or drawn 3-3, England would have qualified and not Ghana. Before this match, 3 of the 4 places to be filled by 3rd placed teams had already by grabbed by South Korea (4points), Uzbekistan(4points) and Mexico (3points but better aggregate) leaving only one to be filled by either England, Egypt or Ghana. Why Egypt did not win 3 nil or England did not win or draw 3-3 was the work of providence.
Nevertheless, it took Ghana's ability to position itself right to benefit from this. I mean, had Ghana not beaten the USA by 4-1, all this would have had no meaning to her. I think Ghana's team is good enough to turn this providential set-up into something great.The Stars therefore need to prove themselves in the subsequent matches.

Ghana vs Portugal again! This is pay back time for Ghana. Let's ensure we see them home. This time not even a hand in the 120th minute will save them. Let's go all out and beat them well.

Our guys got talent but they really need to up their game and always play as if it is always their final game,there is no room to blink.They should play with a state of urgency and they should remember "obiara nye obiara".What I like is that most of these guys have already had world exposer so nothing should make them play with fear or nervousness.Yes discipline is key but it must go with mental toughness because they talents I do believe can do the do.Ghana is not called African Brazilians for nothing but got that name because they got talent,skill and staying power.Stamina is going to really matter in the knockout stages.The whole world is watching and again you need to right the wrongs from your first game.Team work is key every player need to cover up for each other for every slip.Mobility will count do not wait for the ball to get to you be a go getter.Just believe you are capable because this is an opportunity you never have to blow.Remember every team came not just to win but to grab.Go guys and make Ghana proud.It looks daunting but tenacity you sail through.Now be it luck or not you are in.The defence in the first game was appalling and have learnt their lesson by now.Just stay resolute.Kudos.

The coach need to try another player at that position. He can't tackle can't pass can't cross and has no good sense of where he is on the field. He might be a pet to the coach.
