NATAL, BRAZIL – The U.S. defeated Ghana 2-1 in their Group G match as John Brooks responded with the decisive goal after Andre Ayew had tied the game late in the second half on Monday.
Clint Dempsey scored 32 seconds into the contest to put the U.S. in front, where it remained until Ayew scored in the 82nd minute. Four minutes later, the U.S. got a corner kick and Brooks headed in a goal, his first for the national team, to put the Americans back on top.
