Asamoah Gyan is making his 7th AFCON appearance this year, but will this be the end to Ghana and his long wait? (Photo: Getty Images)
It goes without saying that Ghana have waited a long time to get their hands on the coveted AFCON title. The last time the Black Stars tasted victory in Africa s premier national competition was back in 1982. Before Twitter. Or Facebook. Or Youtube, iPods, laptops, flat-screen TVs, cellphones, or evne before the internet became common place. And it was also before quite a few of Ghana s current players were even born.
In terms of AFCON prestige, Ghana are definitely up there alongside Africa s most decorated sides. With four titles, they are only behind Egypt s seven and are tied with Cameroon. The sole time the Black Stars have successfu…

It was another vintage year for Lionel Messi as the Barcelona star won an incredible 10th La Liga title of his career.
The Argentina international now sits second on the list of the most successful players in Spain s top flight, with two winners medals fewer than Real Madrid legend Paco Gento.
He also won a record-equalling sixth Pichichi Trophy for the league s top scorer, drawing him level with Athletic Bilbao great Telmo Zarra, who stood alone at the top since the 1950s.
Take a minute out of your day and watch all 36 of Messi s strikes this term in just 60 seconds.
This will be the best one minute of your day. Stop what you re doing and watch.

Bob Bradley hit out at Jurgen Klinsmann during his Swansea City presentation and accused the German of jockeying for his job as United States head coach in 2010.
Bradley was formally presented as Francesco Guidolin s successor at Swansea in a media conference on Friday and Klinsmann, his replacement for the USA in 2011, came up as the subject of one question.
The former Germany international publicly congratulated Bradley on getting the Swansea job and, while the former Le Havre coach spoke of his gratitude, he clearly still harboured resentment for Klinsmann s seemingly tactless pining for his position in 2010.
From the day I got fired from the US, I ve not said one thing publicly about that team, he told reporters. I don t appreciate the way it was done; I thi…

My analysis
The Baltimore Ravens have not played any of their starters in the preseason this year and that will continue Saturday. This means Josh Johnson will likely get the start again with rookies Devin Leary and Emory Jones finishing things up in a battle for that third quarterback spot. Against the Falcons last week,…
