Asamoah Gyan announced not to take penalty kicks for the Black Stars back in November 2012 as a pledge to his late mother.
This was after he missed a crucial penalty in the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations semi-final defeat to eventual winners Zambia.
His last-minute penalty miss against Uruguay denied Ghana a historic 2010 FIFA World Cup semi-final berth.
