Dominic Adiyiah scored two first-half goals today to lead Ghana to a 3-2 victory over Hungary in Egypt, and into the final of the under-20 World Cup final for the third time.



Abeiku Quansah scored Ghana’s other goal in the 81st minute to restore their two-goal lead.



The Hungarians answered with second half goals from substitute Marko Futacs and Adam Balajti.



Ghana lost their two previous finals to Argentina in 1993 and 2001, and could face a South American opponent again if Brazil beats Costa Rica today.
