The Black Stars of Ghana lost by a lone goal to the Samba Boys of Brazil in an international friendly game played in Sweden.
The only goal of the game was scored by Vagna Love in the 17th minute when he capitalized on poor making by the Ghanaian defence to slot in the ball.
The Stars fought back to cancel the lead but failed on some occasions to find the net and went ahead to the dying minutes of the game with a numerical disadvantage when defender Haminu Draman was shown the red card.
The defeat of the Stars is the first by the team after the last conceded against the Brazilian side at the 2006 World Cup in Germany.
