Mohammed Kudus impress as Ghana beat South Korea in World Cup thriller
Mohammed Kudus impress as Ghana beat South Korea in World Cup thriller

Ghana secured a victory in an exhilarating match packed with turns and twists against South Korea in front of a vibrant crowd at Education City Stadium in Qatar.

A 10-minute spell in the first quarter by the Black Stars gave them a 2-0 lead courtesy of goals from Southampton defender Mohammed Salisu and Ajax’s Mohammed Kudus.

Nevertheless, noisy celebrations by Ghana fans at half time were dampened by a South Korea comeback after the break.

Two stunning headers in three minutes from Cho Gue-sung, the top scorer in his domestic league, levelled the game after 61 minutes.

But the impressive Kudus, who had deftly headed in Jordan Ayew’s cross in the first half, added a final twist when he thumped in a third for Ghana to break South Korea’s hearts.

Chances continued to fall South Korea’s way as they searched for another equaliser but, despite 10 minutes of added time, Ghana held on.
