No pressure on the Black Stars then who, after all, need only to draw with Germany to seal their passage into the last-16!

South Africa, Cameroon and Nigeria are already out and Ivory Coast, barring a mathematical miracle, will also exit the competition on Friday.

There is a real danger that, if Ghana lose tonight, there will be no African side left in the tournament at the last-16 stage.
