Ghana may have lost 2-1 to the United States in its opening Group G match in Fortaleza but Andre Ayew could be a winner from the sad episode.

FIFA has today, 18 July 2014, lifted the suspension that was imposed on the Nigeria Football Federation (NFF) on 9 July 2014 on account of interference.

Some 18 members of the Executive Committee (ExCo) of the Ghana Football Association (GFA) are said to have benefited from a whopping $36,000 made available by the GFA for committee members who did not get the opportunity to travel to Brazil for the World Cup.
