In our continuing series on 32 quotes from 32 people representing the 32 countries in the World Cup, we quote former United Nations Secretary General Kofi Annan (b. 1938). Today, in World Cup action, his nation Ghana tied Australia 1-1.
Brett Holman scored first for the Australian side, but Ghana's Asamoah Gyan answered with a successful penalty kick in the 25th minute. The kick resulted from the red carding of Aussie player Henry Kowell which was the latest controversial call from a ref.
Today's "New York Post," featured the headline "Screw-S-A" in regards to yesterday's apparent botched call which cost Team USA a victory over Slovenia.
Here is our quote from Annan:
"Knowledge is power. Information is liberating. Education is the promise of progress,in every society, in every family."
