Ghana edge out South Korea by 2-3 at the Education City Stadium to grind their first win of the 2022 FIFA World Cup and have also enhanced their chances of qualification into the knockout stage.
The Warriors started the game on a higher note, and were really dominant in all aspects, leaving their opponents to chase only shadows.
The Black Stars subsequently found their rythm and begun to attack especially from the left flanks, where Jordan Ayew was always a pain in the neck for Kim Min Hwan.
The Crystal Palace forward swung in a decent free kick, was failed to be cleared properly and was struck into the net by Mohammed Salisu to give Ghana the lead on the 24th minute.
Kudus Mohammed connected sumptuously with a firm header from Jordan Ayew's cross to double the Black Stars lead heading into the break.
In the second half, the South Koreans returned on a very explosive note and pulled one back on the 58th minute through Gue-Sung Cho with a teasing header.
Just three minutes after, the Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors forward scored again to complete his brace and also got the Taegeuk Warriors back on level terms. Just what they were hunting for.
And finally on the 68th minute, Kudus Mohammed scored with a calm finish after a decent cross was sent from the left, to restore Ghana's lead.
The four time African champions defended so well in the last fifteen minutes to preserve their lead, thanks to a huge heroics of goalkeeper Lawrence Ati Zigi.
It ended 2-3 for Ghana after full time. Huge win for coach Otto Addo and his men who will face Uruguay in their final group game on Friday.
