Ghana did not score. The ball didn't go over the line. The Uraguayan handled the ball like any other defender would have done to stop it going into the goal, with the clear knowledge that he would have got sent off.
By doing that they are through.

The player who was sent off, would have been in big trouble, if he hadn't done what he did, with his manager and players.

Most footballers cheat and some get away with it. That guy didn't but the Ghana player f***** up his penalty.

Having said all that, I do not condone things like that, but it is part of football since way back when I first started watching football some 55 years ago.
