Ghana – Ghana injury headaches ahead of Uruguay clash

Ghana have injury and suspension headaches ahead of a World Cup quarter-final against Uruguay at Soccer City on Friday.

Star striker Asamoah Gyan joined the casualty queue after taking a knock at training.

“My ankle is a bit swollen but I do not think it is too serious. I will be ready for Uruguay,” he assured reporters.

The only other Ghana scorer at the tournament, midfielder Kevin-Prince Boateng, is among those battling to be fit while suspended defender Jonathan Mensah and influential midfielder Andre Ayew are definitely out.
