克林特·鄧普西在整場比賽開場僅29秒進球得分，就在對手扳平比分、勝利無望時，最后階段出現的頭球為美國隊奪回勝利。
A late goal from defender John Brooks helped the United States to a 2-1 win over Ghana in their World Cup opener in Natal on Monday.
美國隊在納塔爾與加納進行他們的第一場小組賽。后衛約翰·布魯克斯在比賽的最后階段攻進一球，美國隊2:1戰勝加納。
Supporters had barely found their seats for the Group G clash when USA captain Clint Dempsey found the back of the net after just 29 seconds at the Arena das Dunas.
當美國隊隊長鄧普西開場僅29秒時攻進一球時，沙丘球場里的球迷們頓時起身歡呼雀躍。
But Ghana appeared to have earned a draw when Andre Ayew levelled proceedings eight minutes from time only for second-half substitute Brooks to head home the 86th-minute winner as the USA made a winning start in Group G.
加納隊似乎能夠憑借安德烈·阿尤的一粒進球扳平比分，然而下半場替補出場的布魯克斯在比賽進行到86分鐘時攻入頭球，為美國隊贏得了在G組的首場勝利。
The USA's win - their first against Ghana in two previous attempts at the World Cup - was just the result Jurgen Klinsmann's men needed following Portugal's drubbing at the hands of Germany.
此前的兩屆世界杯賽場上，美國隊均輸給了加納，而這場比賽是美國隊首次戰勝加納。之后，主帥尤爾根·克林斯曼的球隊還需要繼續與同在G組的葡萄牙和德國隊作戰。
The Seattle Sounders forward drove inside the penalty area, gliding past Ghana defender John Boye before placing the ball in the bottom far right-hand corner - the fifth fastest goal in World Cup history.
來自西雅圖海灣隊的鄧普西帶球闖入禁區，晃過加納防守隊員約翰·伯耶（John Boye），一腳低射，將球送入球門。這一進球也是世界杯歷史上第五個最快進球。
Ghana did have chances to draw level before the break, the greatest of which came on the stroke of half-time as Christian Atsu found himself in space down the right flank and he squared the ball to Ayew but the 22-year-old completely fluffed his lines.
加納隊本來有機會在中場休息前扳平比分，上半場補時階段，克里斯蒂安·阿特蘇（Christian Atsu）在右路拿球，后來把球傳給隊友阿尤（Ayew），然而這位22歲的年輕球員傳球失誤了。
Asamoah Gyan - Ghana's leading scorer during qualification with six goals - was also guilty of wasting a glorious chance 10 minutes into the second half after finding himself unmarked in the area, only to fire his header over the crossbar.
加納隊的優秀隊員阿薩莫阿·吉安（Asamoah Gyan）曾有六粒進球，但也在下半場比賽開賽十分鐘后，在無人盯防的情況下錯失頭球得分的機會。
For all of the Black Stars' possession, they could not find a way past goalkeeper Tim Howard, with the African nation lacking composure in the final third.
對于所有加納球員來說，他們在比賽的最后三十分鐘里不夠沉著冷靜，因此很難攻破美國門將蒂姆·霍華德的大門。
They were eventually rewarded for their sustained pressure in the 82nd minute courtesy of some lovely link-up play between Gyan and Andre Ayew.
比賽進行到82分鐘時，加納隊終于在持續對美國隊施壓后，迎來了首粒進球。這歸功于吉安和安德烈·阿尤之間一次漂亮的接力。
A back-heel from Gyan inside the area paved the way for Andre Ayew to run in and slam the ball into the back of the net.
吉安后腳跟輕磕皮球，把球傳給安德烈·阿尤，后者跟上將球送入網袋。
Ghana's joy was short-lived, however, as defender Brooks rose highest to score from a corner with just four minutes of regulation time remaining.
加納短暫地品嘗了進球的喜悅。就在四分鐘后，后衛布魯克斯縱身一躍，為美國隊再入一粒頭球。
