Asamoah Gyan had no hesitation in naming his stunner at Wembley as the greatest goal he has ever scored.
The former Sunderland striker scored a spectacular goal to deny the Three Lions of England a win in a friendly match against the Black Stars of Ghana in 2011.
It was Ghana’s first-ever game against England and the West African side proved their worth as they denied the British a win in an entertaining match.
Although scoring over 200 goals in his career which spanned 18 years, Gyan had plenty of fantastic goals to choose from.

BoxingHis time with the Black Stars yielded some beautiful strikes, including exceptional kicks against Algeria and the United States of America.
Gyan was asked about his favourite goal ever scored when he sat down for an emotional and wide-ranging interview with Peace FM.
He said his left-footed finish against England is his favourite goal of all time.
"If you ask me to choose [a favourite], I would say the goal against England. That is my best goal in my career," Gyan said as quoted by GhanaWeb.
Gyan added: "Another goal I like is the one I scored in Congo. It was a World Cup qualifier. It was one of the my best goals, we drew 1-1. I don't know if the tape is there that was 2006."
Sports Brief earlier reported that Ghana's leading all-time top scorer Asamoah Gyan has made a comparison between Luka Modric's delicious assist in Real Madrid's quarterfinal encounter against Chelsea to Kwadwo Asamoah's similar effort in 2014.

FootballAsamoah Gyan drew the comparison between the two following Modric's masterclass which has left the football world drooling over his technique.
Modric used the outside of his right boot to hit an almost 30-yard pass onto the feet of Rodrygo, who guided the ball into the net. His jaw-dropping pass caught the Chelsea defence ball watching.
