<\/a><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\nAsamoah Gyan scored and fluffed a penalty as Ghana lost to South Korea<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Ghana suffered their first defeat under coach Goran Stevanovic when they were beaten 2-1 by South Korea in a friendly on Tuesday.<\/strong><\/p>\nA stoppage time strike by Germany-based Koo Ja-cheol broke the hearts of the Black Stars after their impressive display in Jeonju.<\/p>\n
The Black Stars could have grabbed at least a draw but striker Asamoah Gyan fluffed a first half penalty to keep the Koreans in the game.<\/p>\n
The Sunderland striker made amends when he struck in the 65th<\/sup> minute after the Koreans had taken the lead through Ji Dong-won.<\/p>\nBut the Black Stars then dominated the game until the Koo Ja-cheol struck in stoppage time to grab the dramatic injury time victory at Jeonju World Cup Stadium.<\/p>\n
The Wolfsburg midfielder was introduced as a second-half substitute and his goal maintains Korea\u2019s impressive form, coming four days after a victory over Serbia by the same scoreline.<\/p>\n
Korea took the lead after 12 minutes when Ji Dong-won headed a corner into the Ghana net through the hands of goalkeeper Richard Kingson.<\/p>\n
Asamoah Gyan missed an immediate chance to equalize when he put sent a penalty kick straight into the arms of Jung Sung-ryeong,<\/p>\n
But Ghana grabbed a deserved equalizer in the 65th when Sulley Muntari released Gyan, who shot low into the Korean net.<\/p>\n
With just seconds remaining, Koo scored from close range to give South Korea the win.<\/p>\n
Ghana coach made several changes at second half to give some players the chance to impress for the Black Stars but some did not live up to expectation.<\/p>\n
It was the first defeat under the Serbian after victories over Togo, two Congo wins and a draw with England.<\/p>\n
