Ghana’s Black Stars failed in their bid to qualify to the finals of the 2012 African Cup of Nations as they lost by a late goal to the Zambians in the first Semi Finals match of the on-going AFCON in Gabon and Equatorial Guinea.
The resilient Zambia’s inspirational goalkeeper Kennedy Mweene climbed to the occasion to save an Asamoah Gyan penalty in the early part of the first half. The Zambian goal was scored by substitute Emmanuel Mayuka with just 12 minutes remaining to end the match.
The lost means Ghana will play in the third place match against the Malians who also lost by a lone goal against the tournament favourites; Ivory Coast in the second Semi Finals. Even though the Ghanaians defeated the Malians by two goals to nil in the group stages, the Malians would be a tough nut to crack this time around as they would not allow Ghana to beat them twice in the same tournament.
Many Ghanaians as well as soccer analysts are commenting on the missed chances by the Ghanaians to qualify to the finals. Jerry Kwame Ayensu like many others believes, the Zambian game was a match that the Ghanaians played very well and yet had to lose because of the failed chances.
Even though Ghana created as many chances, the team failed to convert any including Asamoah Gyan’s missed penalty kick.
“I think this was the best game of the tournament by Ghana after creating nine clear chances and missing a penalty. We just have been riding our luck all throughout the tournament but this gives us the opportunity to scour the market very well for the very best of playing materials as we lacked the materials for this tournament at some point.”

‘Wanna Be’ Movie Featuring Yvonne Nelson, Prince David Osei, Nana Akua Addo, Zynell Zuh, Eddie Nartey Premieres On Independence Day March 6 At National Theatre!
On Tuesday March 6 a new Ghanaian movie ‘Wanna Be’ would be premiered at the national premiere entertainment centre; National Theatre at 6:30pm.
Since it is the celebrations of the Ghana’s Independence, the day would be declared as a statutory holiday, so the premiere is expected to attract number of movie enthusiast as well as several celebrities to see the movie which has been tagged as an epic comedy.
Without giving out too much of the story, ‘Wanna Be’ is simply a story of a ‘wanna be’ girl who is from a very poor background that she has to result to bragging and lying in other to get the opportunity to wine and dine with her friends who are well to do.
Rightly so, it appears people are liked based on their status in society; who they are; what they can do or what they have done – the story dwells much on that.
It is a story about three friends Lieana, Kate and Caroline. Lieana [played by Nana Akua Addo] is from a poor background and also a habitual liar whiles the other two, Kate [played by Yvonne Nelson] and Caroline [played by Zynell Zuh] are well to do. In a way for them to accept her, she results to bragging and constant lies. It’s like almost everything she says is laced with lies here and there.
