Ghana forward Antoine Semenyo says the Black Stars are heading into their FIFA World Cup clash with England intent on “prove a point” after grinding out a dramatic 1-0 win over Panama on Wednesday night in Toronto.
A stoppage-time strike from Caleb Yirenkyi settled a tense Group L contest that Ghana largely struggled to control, with Panama dominating extended spells and repeatedly forcing the Black Stars onto the back foot.
The win, however, leaves Ghana second in the group’s early standings behind England, who opened their campaign with a 4-2 victory over Croatia.
