Manchester City midfielder Yaw Yeboah won and converted a penalty as Ghana battled to a 1-1 draw with Austria at the ongoing FIFA Under 20 World Cup in New Zealand.<\/p>\n
Yeboah was pushed in the penalty area after a mazy run and he picked himself up to fire the spot kick past Tino Casali.<\/p>\n
Austria had looked the more organized side throughout the match and probably deserved to win the game whilst Ghana missed the influence of the absent Clifford Aboagye.<\/p>\n
Lawrence Ati kept the game scoreless after pulling off a couple of good saves in the first half, but the Austrians took the lead five minutes into the second half.<\/p>\n
Bernd Gschweidl saw his shot blocked by Ati\u2019s legs but fired home the rebound for the opener. Ghana had by this time replaced David Atanga with Prosper Kassim.<\/p>\n
The Black Satellites plugged away but looked set to lose the game until Yeboah won the penalty.<\/p>\n
With Argentina drawing 2-2 with Panama in the other Group B game, all four teams are tied on a point each.<\/p>\n
