Text :
1-In the end everything depended on one last shot at goal. It did
not require speed or agility, it did not call for fast –footed dribbling or
the ability to sail through defenders like a ghost unseen. It all came
down to whether one young man could remain calm as he kicked the
ball and whether another young man could find the skill to stop it. The
match had already entered the record books; this was the longest
penalty shoot-out in an international football competition.
2-The score was 11 – 10 in favour of Côte d’Ivoire against Ghana
when Baffoe, the stalwart Ghanaian defender who plays in the German
Bundesliga, faced the Ivorian goalie. If he scored, the Ghanaians would
stay in the competition with a 50-50 chance of victory. If he missed the
goal, the Ivorians would take the cup for the first time.
3-The Ghanaian stood with his eyes downcast, looking at the ball,
but also thinking of his hard task. It seemed that time stood still waiting
for this young man to deliver a verdict. The Ivorian goalkeeper waited.
Gouaméné had less, far less, to lose. But still you could see the tension
in his body as he waited for a moment that seemed like eternity. Baffoe
stretched out his body. As he ran, he swayed slightly to the left and leant
on his left foot, thereby signalling his intentions.
4-The superb Ivoirian goalie took the hint and darted to his right,
stopping the ball on the goal –line.
5-There was silence, then uproar. Côte d’Ivoire had won the cup.
The 18th African cup of Nations had ended. The victorious Ivoirian goalie
collapsed in sheer joy and his stunned colleagues, having recovered
their senses, fell on him in a goggling glorious heap. That was the joy of
unexpected victory.
