Ghana captain Dede Ayew
Dede Ayew captained Ghana to continental and global glory

Ghana became the first African side to win the Under-20 World Cup when they beat Brazil on penalties in the final in Egypt.

It was third time lucky for Ghana's Black Satellites after losing in the final in 1993 to Brazil and then to Argentina eight years later.

Ghana's victory in Egypt will go alongside their win at the 2009 African Youth Championship in Rwanda.
