We Have Started the Scatter-Scatter...Ghana Under 20 Team Mo Y3 Gy3 (You are all that)

Ok, so if you read my last post...I talked about Ghana's Black Stars, the adult group that is, going to South Africa in 2010 to scatter the place.  It seems I slept on the "under-20" team--the Black Satellites (I would have chosen a different name but let's go with it).  They have set off the SCATTERING in advance.  The Black Satellites have won the World Cup against Brazil (only one of the best teams in the world...well at least until they met the Ghanaians).  This is the FIRST EVER UNDER-20 FIFA WORLD CUP WIN BY ANY AFRICAN COUNTRY.  The score was 4-3 on penalties.

Here is the link from the official FIFA site for all the haters non-belivers.

The link includes highlights from the game, as well as, an interview with the star of the game Dominic Adiyiah.  In conclusion, I thought this quote gave quite a nice summary of the level of this accomplishment:

"It was a heroic achievement for the Black Satellites, who held the South American champions at bay despite being reduced to ten men in the first half." (Fifa.com)

To sweeten the deal, please watch this video (this is the official celebration song, which I am sure is blasting everywhere in Ghana right now) and celebrate with the Black Satellites...The song essentially says, we will score for you so don't worry.  It's their version of "fly like a butterfly, sting like a bee."

Oh SeeeeeeeeeeeeeiYeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

Can't wait till the next level of SCATTERING in 2010!
