Ghana manager Milovan Rajevac believes the Black Stars' World Cup adventure is far from over after they reached their first quarter-final with a stunning 2-1 victory against the United States.
Asamoah Gyan scored the winning goal after three minutes of extra time in Rustenburg. Kevin-Prince Boateng had put Ghana ahead, only for Landon Donovan to level from the penalty spot.
Ghana will now face Uruguay in the quarter-final and Rajevac said: "When we reached the final of the African Cup the boys learned how to compete. That is the most important thing and I now hope Ghana will go further."
