Ghana’s faltering world cup hopes run into its biggest hurdle when the team takes on Germany. Having lost their first match against their usual bunnies USA, they are now in a difficult situation that necessitates an outright victory over Germany. But Germany appeared the most dominant team in the World Cup 2014 action so far. The African champions cannot afford another defeat, while Germany will look forward to ease through the group stage.

Germany-Ghana Preview

Germany rarely loses their group matches. When they win, they win handsomely. It has become a habit for them. Ghana has qualified for the second round in all the world cups that they participated.

Ghana could not play with their usual rhythm in the match against the USA. Perhaps it was due to the early goal that the USA managed to score.

Germany was intimidating against Portugal. Ghana’s initial aim would be to prevent any early goals. When Germany takes lead, they normally take the ownership of the match.

Players

There is no need for any change in the German squad. They played with authority. Thomas Muller will be looking forward to add more goals before the start of knock-out round. Defender Mats Hummels, who scored against Portugal, is a doubtful starter because of a thigh injury.

This match could see something unique. Two brothers play against each other. Jerome Boateng is Germany’s key defender, while Kevin-Prince Boateng plays for Ghana as a striker.

Germany-Ghana Prediction

Germany lost their second match in the last world cup, against Serbia. But this time around they appear in no mood for such chivalry. A German win appears inevitable.
