He\u2019s kind of an x-factor for us, that\u2019s important for us going forward so it\u2019s great to see him getting goals, having fun, doing his crazy dances at the end of the game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI like seeing those dances, cause that means we got the three points so a good night for him.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Benny Feilhaber, a veteran of American football was part of the USA team that was beaten by Ghana in the 2010 world cup in South Africa.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Up6CV6gzYqU?ecver=2\" style=\"position:absolute;width:100%;height:100%;left:0\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<div class=\"related_articles\" style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<div style=\"clear: both; font-size: 90%; background-color: #eeeaea; padding: 5px; width: 60%; margin-top: 10px;\">\n<table width=\"100%\" border=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\">\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border:0; padding:0\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ghanamma.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/96124592.jpg\" style=\"padding-right:2px;\" \/><\/td>\n<td style=\"border:0; padding:0;width:100%; vertical-align:middle; font-size:11px;\">Courtesy of <b>GHANAsoccernet.com<\/b> &#8211; Ghana&#8217;s leading football news website.
