I guess the photo says it all. Later today when Ghana's Black Stars take on the Blue Sharks of Cape Verde, the nation will come to a standstill. As no doubt the Cape Verde islanders will as well. In Accra you can almost do without a television set or a radio whenever the Black Stars play. The city falls eerily silent during the game then all of a sudden, you hear a loud cheer or a devastating groan and you're left in no doubt as to the score. My prediction for this afternoon? Three Cheers and One Groan.
