Asamoah Gyan expects to be fit for Friday's crucial quarter-final meet against Uruguay despite picking up a knock in training on Monday.

The Ghana striker sat out most part of the two-hour session with ice wrapped around his ankle as Milovan Rajevac prepared his side for the World Cup quarter-final clash.

“I felt a knock and it’s a bit swollen, but I don’t think it’s too serious. By Friday I’ll be ready,” he said after the training session at Mogwase on Monday.

Gyan has scored three goals at the finals with his cracker against the United States three minutes into extra-time securing Ghana a place at the last eight.

Ghana play Uruguay on Friday at the Soccer City Stadium in Johannesburg.
