Ghana U-20 are world champions.
Ghana won on Friday the 17 of October the world under 20 championship that was held in Egypt. The match itself saw little drama during regulation time and thirty minutes of extra time. The drama in regular came when a defended from Ghana was send off for a fowl during the first half. Replays of the offense showed that the referee might have been a little bit stiff in his decision. The team from Ghana had to make some adjustments and they pretty much defended the rest of the 120 minutes, waiting to take their chances in penalty shoot outs.
Brazil dominated must of the encounter and they would be kicking themselves for not winning the game in regulation or extra time. Penalty shoot outs came and Brazil had the chance to win the game, up 3-2 in the penalty shootouts. They missed their next penalty kick though and gave Ghana the chance to tie the shoot outs are 3 a piece. The next round of the penalty kicks are sudden death and Brazil took their next penalty kick and missed it, while Ghana converted to lift the trophy for the first team for an African team.
Adiyiah from Ghana was the revelation of the tournament, winning both the golden boots and the best player trophy.

क्रिसिस इन गुइना Conakry
Crisis in Guinea Conakry.
The situation in Guinea Conakry is created by a military government that took over power last year and promised to be in as a caretaker and not stand for any future elections. Captain Dadis Camara though changed his mind once he got into power and plans to be one of the candidates for the the upcoming elections that are now in doubt due to the recent complications. Demonstrators from the opposition party were opened fire upon while in a soccer stadium and 157 people ended up dead. So there is now a crisis of who ordered the military to open fire on civilians. The Captain has denied given out any such orders but he is having a hard time convincing people in the international community. He also beliefs that the situation in Guinea is now in a state that only a tough military guy like himself can keep the country in peace. You ask my opinion about the military ruling countries, I would say no way. They are good for keeping the peace and the ruling the the country should be left in the hands of the civilians.
