Kevin Prince to Royal Bafe-Kings: USA 0-1 Ghana

Jolly Rustenburg's final game
Storms brewed for Uncle Sam
The Black Stars hit town
As I dined on a plate of yam

Stars play like comic heroes
Fond memory lane trip
Roy and Melchester Rovers
Striking Ghana's second strip

Boateng drew first blood
Essien howled on Roman's yacht
Revolution in Accra
From Crown Prince's hot shot

Iconic Appiah for retiring Prince
I shovelled the next course
Side order of Corn Kenkey
With fried fish and chilli sauce

Ref Kassai points to the spot
Unlucky young Jonathan
Kingson eyeballed The taker
No doubt from Donovan

All square at normal time
Ghana launched a speed jet
Bocanegra swiped like a fly
Asa Gyan busting the net

"Africa is still here!!!"
My mate Simpson text me
History has three-peated
Encore for Stars and Kofi
