Ghanaian supporters wow BBC’s John Bennett as they prayed throughout additional time

Sports journalist with the BBC, John Bennett was amazed witnessing how Ghanaians show love for the Black Stars.

According to the journalist, Ghanaians who were seated right behind him were in high spirits as one of them, a lady, prayed throughout the 10-minute additional time.

The fans were probably afraid that the South Koreans could have equalised the 3-2 scoreline by looking at how they mounted pressure on the African side.

“The Ghana fans behind me are in bits. One lady has been praying for the entire injury time!” he wrote in a tweet on Monday November 28 after the match between Ghana and South Korea.

Ghana’s win on Monday at the Education City Stadium marks the team’s five-game winless run in FIFA World Cup games since their defeat to Uruguay in the 2010 South Africa FIFA World Cup quarterfinal match.

Kudus was adjudged the man of the match after setting the record as Ghana’s first player to score two goals in a single World Cup game.
