It took six games for Hughton to taste defeat for the first time as Ghana coach when the Black Stars lost 2-0 to Mexico in an international friendly last Sunday.
However, the 64-year-old didn’t cover himself in glory, with his side succumbing to a humiliating 4-0 defeat against the USA in Wednesday morning’s friendly at the Geodis Park in Nashville, Tennessee.
The USA ran riots in the first half with goals from Giovanni Reyna (double), Christian Pulisic and Leon Balogun, doing maximum damage.

The Black Stars were largely lethargic and did not really give their opponents any contest, especially in the first half, which was one-sided.
Despite pressure mounting on Hughton in the wake of the team’s poor form, he believes he’s the best man to turn things around.
“If you ask me if I feel like I’m the right person for this job, the answer is yes,” he said at the post-match press conference.
Hughton also took the opportunity to Ghanaians for the Black Stars' embarrassing defeat at the hands of the USA.
“I apologize for the performance for the performance and the results,” he added.
