Ghana and NorthEast United forward Asamoah Gyan has not forgotten about the penalty miss in the 2010 World Cup quarter-finals against Uruguay, asserting it will haunt him for the rest of his life.

The Black Stars made it to their first-ever quarter-final in just their second appearance at the World Cup.
