What happend in the Ghana match happens all the time,you see it in sunday league,Non-league and all divisions in every football playing nation.....is it "cheating"??....just the same if someone is clear with keeper to beat and keeper brings him down...is that "cheating"???
Pity the Ghana player didnt have the bottle with the penalty.
It depends.
With the collective world stuck up Afri, sorry Ghana's booty it is no surprise there is so much whining about it.
If it had happened the other way round and Gyan had stopped a Suarez effort it would have been "the hand of Africa" some kind of divine sign, poor Gyan missing the semi, it's all part of the game, these things happen.
Same with the Ireland/France nonsense, if the "big" team had been the victim rather than the plucky underdog no-one would have given a toss.
