On the morning Ghana's crucial Round of 16 clash against Portugal at the FIFA U-20 World Cup, striker, Ebenezer Assifuah had turned 20.
After cutting the cake in a subdued party on Wednesday, high up on his list of wishes was his desire to see Ghana through.
But the party really got started when Richmond Boakye-Yiadom scored from a free-kick with five minutes remaining to hand Ghana a 3-2 win and a place in the quarter-finals.
This is the fifth time Ghana has reached the quarters in the competition and it capped Assifuah's birthday bash back at the team's hotel in Kayseri.
�Yes, the party will go on. We are happy and full of enthusiasm. We are confident we can go even further,� said a smiling Joseph Attamah, a teammate of Assifuah.
Ghana will now leave Kayseri and head for Istanbul, where they will play against Chile in the quarter-finals.
