A productive second half for Australia against Ghana


What looked like an easy win for the Ghana Team turned out into a nightmare, yesterday, in an afternoon match at the MICC. Leading by 2-0 in the second half, the Ghana Team saw Team Australia hitting them like a tornado, scoring 5 consecutive goals to win the match by the score of 5-2! The first goal of Team Australia, the first of two by striker Sabata Mojomotse and the first goal of the tournament for Team Australia had a huge effect on the rest of the team, who after that, were unstoppable! The crowd enjoyed every moment of this game, and the hype was at its maximum at the Mayibouye Pitch, the crowd present even doing a ‘pitch invasion’ after Australia's third goal, scored by Thabise Dlomini.

“The football fever is clearly hitting Munsieville, and the kids of the community are the main actors of this. This is so great to see and to live through” commented one of the spectators at the match. Australia is now first in its pool, tied with Germany and one point ahead of Serbia. The race for the 2 spots available for the knock-out stage looks promising in group D.

To also note in day 7 at the MICC, a 2-0 victory of Cameroon against Denmark as well as a 0-0 score between the Netherlands and Team Japan. More action today in the MICC starting at 11.30 with 4 matches opposing Slovakia and Paraguay, New Zealand vs the defending FIFA Champion Italy, as well as Brazil vs Ivory Coast and Team South Africa's 3rd match against the impressive France squad, a must win for the Host Team to keep hope in being part of the second round.
