Share

10-man Ghana have gone to the top of Group D after a resounding 3-1 away win over Sudan this evening.

Asamoah Gyan scored a brace in the 16th and 60th minutes while Richard Boateng was sent off in the 27th minute.

Muktahdir El Tadhir scored Sudan’s consolation in the 30th minute to end their 2014 World Cup dreams.

AC Milan’s Sulley Munthari put the result beyond doubt in the 89th minute.

Ghana move from six to nine points after the win ahead of Zambia’s 2game against Lesotho on Saturday in Ndola.

  1. That result is good for Ghana ! Sudan is a tough place to win ! Now they will rout Lesotho in Maseru ! Ghana have upper hand now honestly !

  2. I knew that this will happen by Ghana beating Sudan away, Zambia messed up in Lesotho and as a result of Ghana beating Sudan this evening Zambia will even be under more pressure and end up playing a hopeless game. If Zambia draws again with Lesotho tomorrow its bye-bye to the World Cup dreams in Brazil.

    • But be carefull of what you wish for.Learn from PF they wanted power now they have power and they look foolish.As for our national team going to the world cup just imagine being paired against Spain or even just Uruguay?We dont deserve to go to the world cup and should just preapare for cosafa

  3. 3-1 away win with 10 men down is a rout. Your Zambians Stop consoling yourselves and taking it on a journalist. he is just a messenger.

    Zambians are useless and don’t deserve to represent Africa at the world cup and we never even deserved to represent Africa at the confed cup. Let Ghana represent Africa, they are a better team and score goals.

    Not this useless chipololo nonsense that is even struggling to beat a Division 1 North Nkwiza United.

    Tomorrow’s result, Lesotho 1 : Zambia 0 since these f00ls can’t score

    • What kind of SoccerFan are you? You think your impotency in mind will make the boys score?
      Zambia 5- 1 Lesotho tomorrow, if you want go hang yourself by balls.

  4. May the best team from each group qualify to Brazil 2014. Africa deserves nothing else in terms of representation.

  5. I hope zambia taste defeat and come back home so we can focus on what really matters like building schools,hospitals and improving our awful sanitation in towns.It pains me to see zambians waste time watching EPL or other soccer then complain poverty,diseases and lack of progress in the nearly 50 wasted yrs of our independence.Then i look at Singapore,India or China -places where soccer is not worshipped and i see mighty progress.

  6. C’mon when was the last time zambia won a competitive match? World Cup dream ended on that fateful day in maseru! Ghana are deserving world cup contenders. After being given 3 free points and goals they just had to mess it up against a little team like lesotho and they think they pip Ghana for the top spot when Ghana hammered lesotho 7-0. Jokers!

  7. Personally I dread the embarrassment that this chipolopolo team can cause us if they were to go to rio and play against the xavi’s and ronaldo’s of this world.

  8. Whatever about Ghana! If they are so great..like ivory coast..why did they flop once again at the 2013 Africa cup to Burkina Faso or against Zambia in 2012 semis????? If anything they got another slap in the face at the hands of Zambia in the world cup qualifier shortly after the defeat in 2012..so they are the ones under pressure playing catch up… i don’t know where you’re basing their greatness..14 goals against serial losers Sudan and the other spoilers Lesotho will not take black stars to Brazil..we are going to finish the job on them come the final day of the qualifiers..we had this noise before we went to Kampala and i still remember the Ugandans had already qualified before the match just like black stars are being tipped before the end of the qualifying series.

    • Outsider -for sure , you are missing the point . Ghana is a far better team than Uganda. To begin with Name a famous Udandan Player ????????? Never heard of one myself

  9. Awful sports writing and lazy journalism if Ghana was playing away its supposed to be 1-3 scoreline in that order also there is no inclusion of the name of the venue and the number of fans in attendance. Additionally no sentence should begin with a number.
    Please don’t go anywhere near the laptop and write articles if you are highly intoxicated.
    Wake up people!!

    • Ha,ha,ha,ha,ha,ha,ha, ya,ya,ya,ya, kwena wansekesha! Ati “Please don’t go anywhere near the laptop and write articles if you are highly intoxicated.” Very funny!

  10. considering the fact that chipolopolo cant score and or even keep a clean sheet i would rather Ghana goes and yes Ghana will go. first of all 3 free points and goals then a draw to under dogs lesotho. zambia cant just win now pray that Ghana uses a suspended player lol.

  11. Remember history has it that we defeated south africa 3:1in south africa in a must win match to qualify to AFCON….Ghana is nothing at the moment..Zambia will beat Lesotho 4:0 2day..watch it!

  12. Well done Ghana. The chipolopolo guys are so useless. They cant attack and score, they cant run, they play as if they dont want to. They messed up themselves in Letsoto. May be disbanding the team is the only way to go.

    Peace and Prosperity to mother Zambia.

  13. lelo lelo now the rat race has began. Ba Zambia you will now regret the chance you wasted in maseru. I see Renard leaving Chipolopolo by september.
    Otherwise Ghana are worthy of going to the next round because they have the pedigree, hunger & they score goals. Look at zambia’s performances after winning Afcon 2012. The players have grown bigheaded, the coaching staff is sleepy, the FAZ is busy globe trotting & marketing their own egos abroad & the game is dying at an alarming rate.
    Don’t expect miracles like 2012, wake guys & earn your money after toiling for it not on a silver plate. Viva KK11.

    • UNFORTUNATELY KK 11 NEVER ACHIEVED ANYTHING SIGNIFICANT. THE 2012 AFCON TEAM HAS BEEN THE BEST ZAMBIAN TEAM EVER FOR BRINGING REAL GLORY TO ZAMBIA. THE ONLY PROBLEM IS THEY WENT DOWN VERY FAST AFTER THAT VICTORY. ONE REASON IS MAYUKA MOVED TO SOUTHAMPTON AND LOST FORM BECAUSE OF NOT PLAYING REGULARY. THE SAME WITH KATONGO AND CHAMANGA. ANOTHER PROBLEM WAS THE GUYS GOT CARRIED AWAY AND STARTED USING THE DONCHI KUBEBA SYMBOL AFTER SCORING GOALS. THAT MADE MANY ZAMBIANS UNHAPPY THOUGH THEY CANT SAY IT OPENLY. I HOPE THE COACHING STAFF HAVE ADVISED THEM AGAINST THAT PRACTICE.

  14. Let truth be told.Zambia is not going to Brazil 2014 World cup.Ghana is going to qualify ahead of Zambia to the next final round.Ghana will mercilessly butcher Zambia in Ghana.(Ghana may not make it either)That’s the truth and it hurts.Just accept the team at the moment is not at it’s best.
    SORRY CHIPOLOPOLO FOR THE DISAPPOINTMENT!

  15. Indeed the truth hates. At the moment chances of Zambia qualifying for Brazil 2014 are very slim. To begin with beating Ghana at their home soil is an uphill battle even with a strong team. To make matters worse our current team at the moment isnt that strong making it a pipe dream, though anything can happen in football. We should have done ourselves a big favour winning that away game against Lesotho to keep a 3 points lead. Now as it is, the chanses we have to qualify is accumulating maximum points from the two home games remaining and pray for not less than a draw in Ghana.

  16. Considering Zambia’s recent struggles both in Sudan and in Lesotho, I now believe that Ghana is the better team in the group. Hard luck Zambia and the Chipolopolo.
