Ghana hold holders USA to a suprise draw

The gap games in Groups C and D on the second match day at the Fifa Under-20 Women’s World Cup 2010 in Germany saw holders USA in action for the first time.

Though, Jill Ellis and her team were astonishingly held to a draw by competition newcomers Ghana, the first time the North Americans have unsuccessful to win their opening match at a Fifa Under-20 Women’s World Cup.

The owners always go into the next competition with the burden of hope upon their shoulders, and the meeting between the USA and Ghana was no exception.

But, the Black Princesses were by no means likely to surrender the points with no a fight, as their record of no goals conceded in four qualifying matches for Germany 2010 amply demonstrated. That notable record spoke volumes about the Ghana defence, and the USA duly struggled to create worthwhile openings for long periods.
