Ghana had just scored in what had seemed like a battle against inevitability. Suddenly the game was tied 1-1. Then, moments later, this happened.
Reactions from around Twitter were about right:

I think the internet has to hold this guy accountable for this one. NO TAKE BACKS:

After all, it’s not every day that this happens:
2-1! John Brooks becomes the first USMNT substitute to score a goal in World Cup history.
