Just a few hours ago, Ghana became the first African team to win the under 20 World Cup. They defeated Brazil in penalty shootouts 4-3. Ghana had been reduced to 10 men after Addo was sent off in the 37th minute for a tackle from behind on Alex.

However, Ghana weathered the storm to come away with a memorable victory for Africa. With South Africa hosting the 2010 World Cup, this is truly a blessing for African football which has promised so much but has failed to deliver. This was Ghana's third trip to the final of the under 20 World Cup.

Congrats Ghana, its about time Africa stamps their class on world football.....
