Boye is sometimes just a clumsy defender.
Looks like a penalty to me.

THEY HAVE ZERO OFFENCE THIS WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU ARE ON DEFENCE ALL THE TIME GHANA WEAK TEAM DESERVED TO LOSE

Perfect penalty. What is controversial about the penalty. Accept defeat and move on.
Yea it was a clear "P". At first I thought it wasn't but this video justified it.
IF U COMMIT BLUNDERS LIKE THIS. U MUST BE RELGATED TO THE BENCH IMMEDIATELY. OTHERS ARE WARMING BENCH WANTING TO GET THEIR STARTING OPPORTUNITY. SO IF U MEAS UP AS A STARTER. U MUST BE RELEGATED TO BENCH. AND VICE VERSA. IF U ...

Maybe the guy who wrote this article was tired since the game was on really late. Or maybe he needs glasses because that was a blatant penalty.
We need to find another defender because Boye is a liability. He has so many hi ...

There is no controversy here it is a pure goal
It was the right call plain and simple!

Why is it controversial?
John Boye did NOT go for the ball, and certainly there was a CONTACT.
Cry me a river!

idiot its a clean penalty u monkey. If this is controversial obviously u know nothing about football
That was a stonewall penalty any way you look at it. What was the defender thinking?
How can a journalist call this penalty a controversial one. Lets be serious in this country.
This is a complete penalty. Our defenders must be very careful such situations because Aful did the same thing during our much with Egypt. Better luck next time.
It's clear penalty! What is controversial about it?
Players know that they have to be really careful when tackling in the 18 yard box.
We shouldn't worry because referee Suker does worse things than this locally but we appreciate that.
It was John Boye's fault.
John Boye should not play against USA.
He should not play for Ghana again. He tends to make too many mistakes.
This was a clear penalty without doubt
Football is a contact game.
There was minimum contact and the intention was not to foul the attacker.
A clear case of diving or simulation.
This penalty is controversial.
New lessons for Appiah.
In fact we have been following football and we understand the rules very well. The penalty was fair - good officiating.
Our defender should be ashamed for giving the opportunity to the Mexicans - he gave the attacker too muc ...

aside from not respecting the players the ref got in the players path too many times, he was slow, with his belly I wonder how he passed the fitness test and oh the ball hit him which should never happen at this level.
Penalty scored in 31st minute by watching the clip, the rest of the playing time what happened? Cudnt GH have equalised and go ahead to score the winning goal? Appian will break gh's heart again!
IT IS CLEAR PENALTY FOR OBSTRUCTING THE PLAYER IN MOTION
is a clear penalty, player like john boy how
All the same, our guys should'v been ahead, with all this clear chances they missed, Achempong should not be with the black stars, can't imagine missing all these clear chances at his disposal
?
It was penalty. John Boyle was playing too rough and rusty.
why would someone born in Mexico with Mexican parents, having most of his family in Mexico referee a game involving Mexico.
He comes from a family of referees, his father was an international referee from Mexico.
Why did have a clear contact in the penalty box without touching the ball? it was a clear penalty
I THINK THE COACH HAS TO DROP BOYE NOW.BECAUSE THIS NEW ONES CAN DO BETTER THAN HIM NOW.THIS CAN NOT HAPPEN THE THIRD TIME,PLEASE DROP HIM
John Boye and penalties. Someone should investigate this guy quick...either he is involved in betting or taking bribes
Despite the guys were defeated, I had the opportunity and watched the game at work; they played a nice game, especially within the first 10 mins.
That was a clear penalty to me.
There is nothing controversial about this penalty, it's clean be'cos there was contact on de attacking player by de defending player.
Buh who says dis is controversial?its a clear penalty no doubts abt it,do u expect to win every match?its a training type of game so count ur loss n move on
What is controversial about the penalty? John Boye did not go for the ball but went in to physically make contact with the advancing player in his bid to score, and in the process the player was brought down. This is so simp ...

Perfect penalty.
Until the CAF Stand up and boycotts all matches where racism is in full galore and stand up against, they are always wanting pur disgrace
This was a legitimate penalty l
Whts controversial amor dis
Unfortunate
The attacker was clearly impeded by the defender so what do you expect?
Listen we have been beaten by a team B side of the Mexican national team. Just get over it and move on silly IDIOTS
Clear penalty clean goal ref do nothing wrong is k. Appiah who have problem
