It wasn't a defender, it was Luis Suarez, their best striker alongside Forlan. Suarez scored 35 goals in the Dutch league for Ajax last season.
Fantastic bottle from Gyan to walk up and take the first penalty after missing one that would have won them the match.
Sorry to see Ghana go out. I think Uruguay will sorely miss Suarez though...
