Accra Hearts Of Oak Beats The Porcupine Warriors

Accra Hearts of Oak triumphed over their arch-rivals Asante Kotoko after posting a narrow 1-0 win over them at their favourite Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi in the Ghana Premier League on Saturday afternoon.

Kotoko were unable to crawl back from a Selasi Adjei 7th minute tuck-in from close range.

Kotoko dominated play for the opening five minutes until Hearts of Oak took over and scored through Selasi Adjei.

The Phobians had gone in search of goal with Ollenu Ashitey scrolling through Emmanuel Asante and Ainooson before setting up Fiamenyo whose was blocked by Ofori Antwi.

Selasi Adjei arrived in time to tuck the ball home.

Hearts tactically dominated the game after scoring their only goal and could have added a goal or two but Adjei and Fiamenyo all wasted chances.

While Kotoko were trying to find the equaliser, South African Mason October was claiming the better of the Kotoko defenders and attackers on the flanks.

He was named man of the match.
