Ghana faced Uruguay in the last round of the group stage. Judging from the current world ranking, Ghana’s strength is not as good as Uruguay. However, from the performance of the first two rounds, Ghana’s offensive power is very strong, and scored 5 goals against Portugal and South Korea.
Ghana ranks second in the group with 3 points after getting 1 win, and 1 loss in the previous 2 matches. Meanwhile, Uruguay has only collected 1 point and is cornered at the bottom of Group H.
The confrontation between Uruguay and Ghana will remind the events of the 2010 World Cup. In the quarter-finals of the World Cup in South Africa, Uruguay won 5-2 on penalties. Previously the normal match ended with a score of 1-1. Ghana scored the first goal through Muntari in the 45th minute, then Forland replied in the 55th minute.
Now that they meet again, The Black Stars will definitely go all out for revenge. Moreover, Ghana has a great opportunity to advance to the last 16. With the condition that they have to win over Uruguay in tonight’s match, Ghana can join hands with Portugal to the knockout stages.
In the Qatar World Cup, Uruguay was weak in scoring. Draw 0-0 against South Korea in the first round, and were beaten by Portugal 2-0 in the second round. In the last round against Ghana, La Celeste had to score three points to qualify to open the opportunity to qualify.
Uruguay coach, Diego Alonso will most likely continue to arrange the striker trio, namely Suarez, Cavani and Nunez to spearhead the attack. Even though they look weak, Uruguay has experienced players so they still have a chance to beat Ghana in the final round.
Meanwhile, to be able to progress to the round of 16, Ghana only needs a draw against Uruguay. With a record that South Korea lost, or played a draw when meeting Portugal.
