Sunderland loan signing, John Mensah has this afternoon captained Ghana to a group victory over Serbia.
Lyon’s Mensah played very well, and maybe surprisingly to some lasted the full 90 minutes at centre half.
Ghana won the game with a late penalty after Serbia had earlier been reduced to 10 men and now play Germany & Australia as they try to progress to Round Two.
Sunderland boss, Steve Bruce has yet to decide on making a move for Mensah to retain his services for next season, but performances like this will surely tempt Bruce into securing his signature, at least for another season on loan.
