Fortaleza (Brazil), June 22:
Ghana held Germany to a 2-2 draw yesterday despite veteran striker Miroslav Klose coming on as a substitute to tie the World Cup scoring record with the equalizer in their highly entertaining Group G match.
Klose now has 15 career World Cup goals, equaling the mark set by former Brazil star Ronaldo. Klose scored the equalizer in the 71st minute, less than two minutes after coming on, when a corner by Toni Kroos was flicked to the far post by Benedikt Hoewedes and the striker slid in to knock the ball into the roof of the net.
The result means the United States would advance from the group if it beats Portugal on Sunday. Mario Goetze had put Germany ahead in the 51st, but Ghana equalized three minutes later through Andre Ayew. (Agencies)
