Essien Out of World Cup

It was confirmed today that injury plagued Chelsea star Michael Essien will be kept out of the World Cup by a knee injury suffered during the African Nations Cup earlier this year. The hope was that he might be able to be back from the tournament, but that won't happen.

Ghana's in a very difficult group with Germany, Serbia, and Australia, and this injury severely hampers their chances of advancing out of it.
