Ronaldo's goal takes life in Ghana


A Ghanaian fan died suddenly as his country conceded their first goal against Brazil in Tuesday's World Cup second round clash.

Richard Amenawu, 25, fainted and collapsed as Real Madrid's Ronaldo scored the first in champions Brazil's 3-0 victory over the last remaining African side in the tournament.

The young man was watching the match on a screen installed in the train station at Takoradi.

He was taken to hospital in the centre of town but could not be revived.
