    Lionel Messi is still one goal behind @ASAMOAH_GYAN3 when it comes to all-time #WorldCup goals. Gyan’s 6 goals make him Africa's top World Cup scorer - does this make him the competition's top African player? Let us know 👇pic.twitter.com/gmMlXzbwIQ

        There is no denying @ASAMOAH_GYAN3 status as an #African @FIFAWorldCup legend. However, history will always remember him for being architect of #Africa's failure to win @FIFAWorldCup in #2010 in #SouthAfrica. @fifamedia @FIFAcom #GhanaFootball @CAF_Media @CAF_Online

        It pains #Ghana had all it takes to win it on #Africa soil. But a combination of hard luck & inferiority complex denied us.Dont know when next #Africa will hv such a glowing opportunity,right before over 70,000 #Africans !

        Set that failed penalty aside, Asamoah Gyan is a legend!

        The competition's top goal scorer but not necessarily top African player. We definitely have great respect for his contribution to our games.
