Ghana striker Asamoah Gyan has admitted he is thrilled after becoming the only African player to equal Roger Milla?s record at the World Cup finals.
The 28-year-old scored a magnificent powerful half-volley in the 63rd minute to put the Black Stars ahead in their 2-2 draw with Germany on Saturday.
That fabulous strike took Gyan?s World Cup finals goal tally to 5 and equalled a record held by Cameroon?s Roger Milla and unrivalled for a decade.
?Yes I?m happy but I?m the team captain and the team?s success comes first but scoring here is great and personally I?m happy,? the Al Ain hit-man said in the post-match interview.
Gyan has also become the only African striker to score at three different World Cup finals.
