Asamoah Gyan took to Instagram Live on Thursday afternoon, expressing deep emotions and slamming his former teammates for not supporting him during one of the most challenging moments of his career.
The former Ghana international voiced his frustration, accusing his 2010 World Cup teammates of abandoning him after his infamous penalty miss against Uruguay.
Gyan addressed lingering questions about whether someone else on the team wanted to take the penalty, firmly asserting that he was the designated taker and dismissing any claims that he missed deliberately. "When the penalty miss happened, I was abused and called names because some people said I should have left it for someone else.
Why didn't they step up to take it?
