A poor showing from Hearts of Oak on Sunday afternoon saw the team lose to Aduana Stars in the Ghana Premier League.
In a Week 18 encounter of the Ghanaian top-flight league today staged at the Accra Sports Stadium, the Phobians targeted a win to close the gap on the league leaders.
Unfortunately, Coach Slavko Matic and his boys could not execute their plan to upset the in-form team from Dormaa.
During today’s contest, Hearts of Oak managed to hold Aduana Stars for just 45 minutes but succumbed to the might of the visitors in the second half.
Just two minutes after recess, Isaac Mintah equalised to shoot Aduana Stars into a deserved lead.
Later in the 64th minute, the same player scored again to complete a sensational brace to steer Aduana Stars to a 2-0 win at the end of the 90 minutes.
Courtesy of the win, Aduana Stars are still top of the Ghana Premier League table, this time around with a five-point lead.
For Hearts of Oak, the team is finishing Week 18 of the league season in 4th position.
