Ghana’s all-time leading goal scorer, Asamoah Gyan, has rated the 2010 Fifa World Cup hosted in South Africa as the best he has ever witnessed.
The world’s most prestigious tournament was hosted in Africa for the first in the history of the competition where millions of people from the globe visited Africa.
However, Ghana became the only African country to play in the quarterfinal but suffered an elimination against Uruguay in penalty shootouts.
According to Gyan, the organisation of the tournament made it the best he has ever seen.
He added that the display of Africa’s rich culture makes the Mundial in 2010 the best he has ever seen.
