    47'
    Partey does the Zidane turn, stepping on Massa's foot in the process and ceding a free-kick. I'm not sure I've ever seen such a thing before,

    Ghana set us away again.
    17:03
    Change for Uganda: Oloya replaces Azira.

    Ghana have earned that lead, dominating the majority of the half and missing a couple of presentable chances. Uganda, though, will be naused to be behind - there was no need whatsoever for Inside to foul Ayew, and they now need to make some adjustments.

    Half-time: Ghana 1-0 Uganda
    45+1'
    Uganda have been much better these last ten minutes, but you'd still back Ghana to be the next scorers.
    45'
    There shall be two added minutes.
    45'
    A backheel from Luwaga - he's been quiet so far - finds Ochaya, whose cross is blocked behind by Afful. Miya takes the corner, which is headed straight back to him, and this time, he has a better angle, so curls in a jazzer that picks out Insinde - who takes his eye of it and misses the ball entirely.

    But here come Uganda, Mubarak falling over in midfield and Massa finding Miya, hurtling into the box. He's right of centre, and should go across goal, but can't get body and foot around the ball, sending it wide via the outside of the near post.
    42'
    Ghana need to get the ball to Atsu at every opportunity because Ochaya doesn't know what day it is.

    Atsu is all over Ochaya, dragging the ball down his outside then stepping over when he catches up and cutting inside, opening the angle for a shot. He connects well enough too, but sends it straight at Onyango.
    40'
    Uganda have offered nothing in attack since about the five-minute mark. Ghana, meanwhile, look dangerous.

    Rahman is stretchered off, and Acheampong comes on.
    36'
    Rahman chases after Kizito, stretches, and collapses. That's his day done.
    35'
    The ball kicks up off the turf again and Boye smacks it straight up into the air, but responds well, nodding back to the keeper.

    GOAL! Ghana 1-0 Uganda (Ayew, A penalty) Ayew waits for Onyango to go left and curves a gentle shot high down the middle. The Ghanaians celebrate with some formation dancing.

    RIDICULOUS BEHAVIOUR! PENALTY TO GHANA! Gyan diddles Inside on the corner of the box, Inside clumsily pulls him back, earning himself a yellow card in the process, and up steps Andre Ayew.

    Lovely from Ghana, Mubarak finding Atsu, who turns a great ball down the line, first-time, for Jordan Ayew. This time, he gets the cut-back right, picking out his brother arriving into the box, and he should score, but contorts his position and allows the ball across his body in order to use his left foot and Onyango saves low by his right foot.

    Anyway, Baba is back on - we'll see.
