Ghana legend, Asamoah Gyan, has slammed the Black Stars players following their elimination from the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.<\/p>\n

Ghana suffered a 2-0 defeat in their final Group H game at the Al Janoub Stadium against Uruguay on Friday.<\/p>\n

Ahead of the game, the West African country needed a draw to progress to the next round of the tournament but failed to leave a mark.<\/p>\n

Reacting to the defeat, Gyan took a swipe at the players insisting that the players failed to play with urgency.<\/p>\n
