Amir murillo

FIFA World Cup Group: A 95th-minute goal by Caleb Yirenkyi saw Ghana secure a hard-fought 1-0 win over Panama in the FIFA World Cup Group L clash here at Toronto Stadium on Thursday.

Pnama enjoyed the first chance of note, as Amir Murillo's low cross found Cecilio Waterman in the area, but Benjamin Asare repelled his first-time effort with a fine diving save. They created the next opening when a poor Asare punch fell to the feet of Jiovany Ramos, and while the defender had time, he blazed his effort over.

The Ghana goal continued to live a charmed life in the second half, with Cristian Martinez next to come close. The No6 collected a loose ball in the area and deployed a clever shimmy to buy a yard, only to flash his shot into the side netting.
