Brazil v Ghana - Starting Line-Ups - Cafu Adriano & Roberto Carlos Meet Appiah, Muntari & Draman From Black Stars

Submitted by Pavlos Skoufis on Tue, 27/06/2006 - 15:14.

Brazil head coach Carlos Alberto Parreira is without Robinho, who misses the match through injury, but otherwise he has a full squad to select from.

The Black Stars will be without Chelsea midfielder Michael Essien, who is suspended for the match, but Ghana will have both Sulley Muntari and Asamoah Gyan - who both scored against the Czech Republic – available after being suspended for the USA match.

The Black Stars have got further in the tournament than they could have dreamed, but that doesn’t mean that they will be overawed playing the World Champions and want to be the first African team to beat Brazil in the Finals, with no other African nation ever having scored against them.
