Hearts pocket half of the amount after deductions to the National Sports Authority, VAT and 10 % of the gross amount to the Ghana Football Association

Hearts sold all 38,000 tickets which the most expensive selling for GH¢ 100 and the cheapest going for GH¢ 10.

Hearts lost 1-0 to Kotoko in the Week 10 fixture thanks an own goal from their goalkeeper Abdoulaye Soulama.
