Our plan against Hearts of Oak worked perfectly - Olympics coach Yaw Preko

Great Olympics head coach Yaw Preko has eulogized his players for playing according to plan in their 2-0 win over city rivals Hearts of Oak on Saturday, 30 January 2021.

The Wonder Club stunned the Phobians to win the bragging rights of the Mantse Derby at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Skipper Gladson Awako scored a sumptuous free-kick flew past the wall and into the top corner at the near post leaving goalkeeper Richmond Ayi in stupor.

Before the interval, Maxwell Abbey smashed in a on a half-volley inside the box after a prosaic cross from his brother Samuel Ashie Quaye.

''I am proud of the boys. You saw it, they gave everything. We planned for this game and everything that we put in place came to light,'' the ex-international said in his post-match interview.

''The boys came to the party, we decided to hit them early and it worked so second half all we needed to do was just to be compact and defend the two goals and exactly our plan worked for us,'' he added.
