Remember that Ghana kind of lucked out because Cze's best player Koller(Sp?) this very tall forward who is like thier main threat, got injured in the Cze USA game. Also, USA was not really as strong as people thought at that point I think they had USA ranked as high as #5 in the world. Basically Ghana beat a Cze team without their best player and an overrated USA team.
Some Ghana fan told me that The Israeli flag thing was because many of their players at the time played their professional football in Israel. Nothing more nothing less they were just supporting Israel because theat's where they play football. I'm sure their buddies said, "Hey guys remember us when you play in the WC."
I also don't care how well you play if you can't finish and lose 3-0 that's a bad result. If they would of lose to Brazil like 2-1 or 1-0 I would say they played well. I'm not going to give props to a team that lost by a score of 3-0. I'm not saying Ghana is a bad team but they are just the popular cute team right now. Someone here mentioned it last WC it was Senegal that were the darlings of the WC. In WC 98 it was Nigeria that impressed a lot of people before getting killed by Denmark in the knockout stages. I believe they lost 4-0 or something like that. Every WC some African team makes a nice little run to the knockout stages and they become the darlings of football.
My bad in WC2002 Senegal made it to the fianl eight they were unlucky to lose to Turkey in my opinion. Still case in point where is Senegal today? They didn't even qualify for the WC2006 my friends.
