USA Gets Revenge on Ghana with 2-1 Victory

USA lost starting center-forward Jozy Altidore - stretchered off with a serious looking injury.

(RIO DE JANEIRO, Brazil) - A first-minute goal by Clint Dempsey and a late winner from substitute John Brooks helped USA avenge their 2010 exit to Ghana with a 2-1 victory over the Black Stars in Natal.

The hard-fought win leaves Jurgen Klinsmann's side second to Germany only on goal difference in Group G, while Ghana are left alongside Portugal without a point to their name.
