Black Stars should stop dancing with little celebration then refocus on the game. Asamoh Gyan especially, dance after game is over.

WE HAVE THE FUNNY HAIRCUTS ADORNED WITH BLEACH BLOND HIGHLIGHTS,THE KPANLOGO CUM AZONTO DANCE ALL CHECKED.THE TOUCHING OF THE GROUND AND POINTING TO THE SKY HAS BEEN MASTERFULLY PRACTICED.THE BEATING OF CHEST AND TOUCHING OUR FOREHEADS TO THE GROUND HAS BEEN TRADEMARKED BY OUR PLAYERS.WHAT ARE YET TO DO IS WIN A GAME.I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD BLAME REFEREES OR COACHES FOR THAT.THESE PLAYERS NEED TO UNDERSTAND THE HONOR THEY HAVE BEEN HANDED TO REPRESENT THE WHOLE NATION AND STOP RUNNING AROUND LIKE SOME BASTARDS I KNOW IN USA AND START ACTING LIKE WELL BROUGHT UP GHANAIAN YOUNG MEN.SO FAR MY HERO HAS BEEN ADAMS,KWARASEY AND DAUDA WHO SEEM TO HAVE MORE CONTROL OF THEMSELVES.

I seriously agree with Orlando. Ayew is not a team player and very selfish. He will never score one in this tournament.

Bastard!! causing my game.
Bench this IDIOT.

VERY SMART, INTELLIGENT DEFENDERS. BOYE AND KASA WERE QUESTIONABLE BACK THERE. THE FIST GOAL I BLAME IT ON BOYE. HE SHOULD HAVE PAID ATTENTION TO GOETZE GETTING BEHIND HIS BACK/GETTING INFRONT OF AFFUL BEFORE THE CROSS WAS MADE. HE FAILED TO PAY ATENTION TO WHAT WAS CLOSE TO HIM(GOETZE). BUT RATHER CONCENTRATE ON WAT WAS AFAR(THE BALL). THE SECOND GOAL WAS PURELY KASA'S FAULT. THE NUMBER 1 RULE ANY DEFENDER MUST MAKE DURING CORNER IS MANNING THE LAST POLE. THEN AGAIN, KASA IS NOT A DEFENDING SPECIALIST. AFFUL WAS MANNING HIS SIDE OF THE POLE, WHERE WAS KASA? AGAIN, I BLAME AA. HE SHOULD HAVE USED KASA IN DEFENCE. THIS IS A MUST WIN GAME N U GAMBLE AGAIN. AFFUL AND OPARE.....BOYE PLAYED YOEFULLY IN THE FORST HALF, BUT HE SHOULDNT HAVE BEEN IN THE GAME IN THE 2ND HALF. HE LACKS HEIGHT, HE IS SLOW IN READING OFFENCES. AND HIS AERIAL DEFENDING IS POROUS. U HACVE SUMAILA WHO IS WAY BETTER N AA KEPT HIM ON THE BENCH. BOYE IS ALSO A DIRTY PLAYER. LATE ON TACKLES. HE EVEN CAUSED A PENALTY AGAINST MULLER IN THE FIRST HALD, BUT THE REFS DIDNT CALL IT...

There's nothing wrong with the stars entertaining themselves for scoring. It is nice to watch. Jonathan Ayew is who we should be upset with.
He is WACK!!

I'm so awed at how Ghana still believe they are through while it's clear that he there is no hope in sight. While others are taking their chances well to score goals, our team continue to squander clear opportunities only to turn around and make excuses. Now we're hoping others lose for us get through. It's funny!

Can someone please educate me on exactly what the GBC commentator says after a goal is scored.!! Is it OLUWAA or something to that effect, wondering what Yoruba has to do with Ghana. Football as Oluwaa means God in that language. Sounds very daft ,someone please advice him, he needs training

It might very well be Yoruba. There's a lot of Nigerian influence in Ghana. Oluwaaaaa is something radio commentators have been saying for years after a goal is scored, so it's very much part of Ghanaian football tradition by now. It has nothing to do with training.

Coach must order the players to have very neat Haircuts to win. Those Haircuts are awful and ugly for Ghanaian to copy. No more discipline?

We lost this game because of Jonathan Ayew. He is a selfish prat who wanted so bad to score a goal and hung on to the ball although he couldn't score. Ayew caused us our win to the Germans and should be ashamed of himself.

I just don't get it when our team is showered with such praises for playing an "entertaining" football. When exactly did FIFA rules considered "entertainment" as a factor in deciding a match winner? What is "entertaining" about playing a nice game but failing to win the match? Passing the ball correctly and winning the 50:50 in the MIDFIELD are useless if those "nice" things are note translated into goal scoring.
Our opponents know we can play such a "nice" football but we can score when we are in or around the 18 box. So all that our opponents do is just allow us to play with the ball, wait for us in the penalty box, take the ball from us or wait for us to make a mistake and then score us! It's that simple! They set us a trap by allowing us to play "nice" football and we can just get it!
Does anyone remember what Chelsea did to Liverpool in the just ended EPL? Chelsea managed to score one goal, packed all the players in the 18 and gave the rest of the field to Liverpool to play with. All that Chelsea did later was to capitalize on one mistake by Liverpool...Chelsea won by 2-0, even though Liverpool had almost 80% ball possession!
Our boys are not playing any entertaining football; they are just tormenting us by not "translating" that "entertaining nonsense" into goals. Entertaining football has NO place in FIFA rules...let the boys get that simple fact.
