Former Black Stars captain Asamoah Gyan has slammed the performance of the team against Colombia following their elimination in the ongoing 2026 World Cup.
Ghana suffered a 1-0 loss against the South American side on Saturday morning in their Round of 32 encounter.
Jhon Arias' first-half strike secured the win for Colombia to set up a Round of 16 clash against Switzerland.
Reacting to the outcome, Ghana's all-time leading scorer said the Black Stars lacked the intensity and attacking determination required in a match of such importance.
"Today's performance was below average, no sense of urgency," Gyan said on SuperSport.
"We (Ghana) did not have men in the box.
"Colombia were ahead but kept fighting to score more."
Summing up the contest, the former Sunderland and Al Ain striker conceded that Colombia were the better side on the day.
"To summarise everything, Colombia deserved the win."
The defeat brings Ghana's World Cup journey to an end after reaching the knockout stage for the first time since their memorable run at the 2010 tournament in South Africa.
The Black Stars had progressed from the group stage after finishing third in Group L before falling at the first knockout hurdle.
