The West African country renew their rivalry against Uruguay in this year\u2019s competition.<\/p>\n<p>The Black Stars were just a goal away from reaching the semifinal before a Luis Suarez handball and Asamoah Gyan\u2019s missed penalty denied the four-time African champions from making history in the competition. Akunnor, who was on commentary duties at the game has advised the Black Stars to focus on qualifying.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was there my self. I was shocked. I can affirm how he [Asamoah Gyan] feels but we should not look at it in the way of revenge. We are going into a tournament and you need to come out good in the group and move to the next stage. You could win Uruguay and go out.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAll the games are difficult that is why it\u2019s important not to focus on one team,\u201d he stated on Metro Tv\u2019s Good Evening Ghana.<\/p>\n<p>Ghana will open their campaign against Portugal on November 24 at Stadium 974, face South Korea at Education City Stadium on November 28 and wind up their group matches against Uruguay on December 2 at Al Wakrah Sports Complex.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
