‘Don’t cry for Ghana’
UNITED NATIONS, June 28: UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, a Ghanaian, said his country's performance at this year's World Cup was “just a coming out party.”
“Don't cry for Ghana,” Annan, an avid soccer fan, told reporters after their 3-0 defeat to Brazil in the second round.
“I think tomorrow it will be a different story.”
He noted the 2010 matches would be played “on African soil.”
