Ghana will be sweating over the injury of striker Majeed Waris who remains doubtful for the Black Stars World Cup opener against USA next Monday after limping off in their final friendly against South Korea at the Sun Life Stadium in Miami. The 22-year-old Sparta Moscow attacker picked up a thigh injury after just five minutes in the match played at the Sun Life Stadium and was replaced by Jordan Ayew. Waris appeared to have landed awkwardly after scaling over a clumsy challenge and looked to have injured his left thigh. Two members of Ghana�s medical team accompanied him into the dressing room after he was substituted. Further tests will have to be carried out to know the extent of damage as early prognosis does not look too good. If it is established that he will not be able to recover for the tournament, Ghana can replace him in the final squad before the first game. Ghana is already without central defender Jerry Akaminko and Waris injury comes as a huge blow to the Ghana coach Kwasi Appiah
