Actor John Dumelo believes Ghana will prevail in the grand final in December despite their defeat to Portugal in their first match on Thursday.
Although it appears that his piece was written prior to the Ghana vs. Portugal match, the Black Stars’ excitement and optimism, which were evident in their outstanding performance against the Portuguese, have strengthened the belief.
John Dumelo, a politician and farmer, made the claim on his official Facebook page, which has more than 5.9 million fans.
In the meantime, controversy surrounds the controversial penalty that Portugal was given in their 3-2 victory over Ghana on Thursday.
Asamoah Gyan, the most productive player in Ghana’s history, has commented on this topic.
Cristiano Ronaldo was fouled in the box during the fiercely contested match between the two nations at the ongoing FIFA World Cup being held in Qatar, despite the fact that replays showed Ghanaian Mohammed Salisu had touched the ball.
Ronaldo’s penalty kick gave Portugal the advantage, but Ghana fought back valiantly, and the score eventually came to 3-2.
