UNITED NATIONS, June 28: UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, a Ghanaian, said his country's performance at this year's World Cup was ?just a coming out party.?
?Don't cry for Ghana,? Annan, an avid soccer fan, told reporters after their 3-0 defeat to Brazil in the second round.
?I think tomorrow it will be a different story.?
He noted the 2010 matches would be played ?on African soil.?
Annan missed Ghana's win against the US last week because he was flying back from a meeting in Geneva
