Ghana drew 0-0 with England in their second group stage match at the FIFA World Cup, and goalkeeper Benjamin Asare gave an interview after the match.

This is your first appearance at the FIFA World Cup. What does it mean to you knowing you will start in a FIFA World Cup match for the first time?

For me, as you said, I'm personally very happy. I think this is my responsibility. Since this is my job, every time I step on the field, I must constantly improve. I want to thank Almighty God, and also thank the people of Ghana for their support, thank my fans, and thank everyone who loves and supports me. I pray for them, and I hope everything goes smoothly.

Let's talk about the controversial penalty. I was on the other side. Did you discuss whether Prince should have been given a penalty?

That was the referee's decision. As long as we're still playing on the field, there's nothing more to say. All we need to do is focus on the game and keep playing.

Kane is one of Europe's top scorers this season, and you managed to keep him at bay. He had only one shot on target throughout the match, and you saved it. What was it like facing him? Did you communicate? What did you talk about?

It's normal. For me, it's part of the game. It's normal to face Kane. Even top goalkeepers concede goals and lose to opponents. So why shouldn't they score against me? Of course, they might score, but I always want to prove myself and show everyone that this is my job and I can do it. So I'm happy that God allowed me to bring this result to the people of Ghana.

Let's talk about the locker room after today's match. What did the coach say? Who came and spoke with you?

Many people spoke with me because they know me and they know I have this ability. This is my life. I work hard for my life. Yes, I thank Almighty God, who answered my prayers and made everything go smoothly.

What was it like playing in your first FIFA World Cup match?

It's normal.

What's the difference between the level of the Ghana Premier League and the FIFA World Cup?

There's no difference. We're on the same level.
