USA SNATCHES DRAMATIC WIN OVER GHANA
Wolf and Wynalda break down the 2-1 win over Ghana.
Finally, the United States men's soccer team beat their nemesis Ghana in the World Cup.
It took 33 seconds for Clint Dempsey to open the scoring to establish control of the U.S. squad after Landon Donovan was left off and a dramatic game-winning header by John Anthony Brooks in the 86th minute to vindicate U.S. coach Jurgen Klinsmann, who selected the young Bundesliga player with an American father and a German mother, despite his struggles early in the year.
In so doing, Klinsmann did what former coaches Bob Bradley and Bruce Arena could not -- defeat the dangerous Ghana squad that had eliminated the Americans in the last two World Cups. The United States secured a crucial three points in what is known as the "Group of Death" with Germany and Portugal in addition to Ghana.
