Ghana coach Otto Addo admits luck played its part in their 3-2 win over South Korea at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar.
Black Stars took a 2-0 lead courtesy of goals from Mohammed Salisu and Kudus but two stunning headers in three minutes from Cho Gue-sung levelled the game after 61 minutes.
Kudus added a final twist when he thumped in a third for Ghana to break South Korea’s hearts.
“I am satisfied with the result of getting three points. In the beginning of the game, Korea put pressure on us, but we took the lead with a good free kick,” the 47-year-old said after the game.
“The opponent changed tactics after the first half, but we struggled because we couldn’t block Korea’s cross. However, our spirit was strong, so we scored the third goal. I wish we had scored the fourth goal, but in the end we won. I did. I am satisfied.”
Black Stars are currently second in Group H and will need a win or draw their final group game against Uruguay to process to the round of 16 stage.
