GHANA THROUGH TO BRAZIL!

Ghana sealed a third straight World Cup finals slot despite losing 2-1 to Egypt on Tuesday night in the return leg of the 2014 playoff played at the Air Defense Stadium in Cairo. 

The Black Stars advanced 7-3 on aggregate to become the fourth African country to qualify for next year's finals in Brazil. 

Egypt went ahead on 25 minutes through Amir Zaki after Black Stars goalkeeper Fatau Dauda made a hash of an Aboutreika freekick. Six minutes away from time, substitute Gedo was put through by danger man Ahmed Salah and he blasted past Dauda. 

But against the run of play, Asamoah Gyan slid a ball through for Kevin-Prince Boateng, who replaced Abdul Majeed Waris to finish off a consolation in the 89th minute. 

Egypt's Shikabala had a glorious chance to make it 3-1 but the substitute amazingly shot wide.
