    Starting lineups for both teams:

    Ghana

    Sulemana
    Danso
    Sackey Patience
    Okoe
    Clottey
    Bayor
    Foriwa
    Baidu
    Sackey Alberta
    Ankrah
    Dgajmah

    Australia:

    Foster
    Alagich
    Salisbury
    Davies
    Golebiowski
    Peters
    Garriock
    Barbieri
    Reuter
    Karp
    Small

    Still a young team for the Aussies. No Sacha for the remainder of the World Cup. Some solid players on the bench. Barbieri is starting at goal for the Aussies. Only 11 caps. Same as Kell.

    First 10 minutes. Ghana has had more chances but Australia had one of the better ones from 15 yards with a shot by Garriock.

    Even though Australia is playing in a changed strip, Skippy is with them and hoping to bring luck!

    More saves by Melissa Barbieri as the Aussies fight off the Ghana attack 20 minutes into the match. They hit the bar twice in two minutes!

    It said that one of the Ghana players hit Barbieri. They allowed the play to go on?

    So does Di Alagich get that assist on that second Ghana goal?

    And the Aussies were just robbed of a PK. The Ghanian defender clearly got all Aussie and zero ball.

    Was that the non-call that Garriock was complaining about?

    I do believe so.

    I was just gonna post that I thought Australia still had alot of time in this match to at least tie things up and lo and behold looks like they are one goal away from doing so.

    I typed that right after the goal. Matchtracker must be slow for me.

    Now Australia needs 2 more goals to win and keep their quarter-finals hopes alive. A draw/tie won't do.

    Twice Davies gets hit in the face with the ball. Talk about bad luck!

    Good try, Australia. Better luck, next time. So much travelling before the Cup and then sickness hit the team. Then injuries.

    FT Ghana 2 Australia 1

    I thought it was 4 minutes of stoppage time. Instead it was 3.

    Sad to see the Aussies go. Nice effort though. :(

    At least an African team finally got a win. Congrats Ghana.
