GHPL Matchday 32: Hearts of Oak fight to earn point from Ebusua Dwarfs clash in Cape Coast
04.07.2021 LISTEN

Hearts of Oak on Sunday night had to work to secure a 1-1 draw in the game against Ebusua Dwarfs in the Ghana Premier League.

The Phobians on the back of Asante Kotoko’s draw with King Faisal on Sunday hoped to win today to edge closer to being crowned champions of this season’s Ghanaian top-flight league.

Due to the resilience of Ebusua Dwarfs, a side fighting to survive relegation at the end of the season, Hearts of Oak’s early celebrations will have to wait.

In a game played at the Cape Coast Stadium, neither side could score in the first half but the home team equalized through Denis Korsah in the 83rd minute to take the lead.

Although the Crabs made efforts to defend the lead, a strong Hearts of Oak performance in the final minutes of the encounter saw the side restoring parity courtesy of an equalizer from striker Kwadwo Obeng Jnr in added time.

Despite not getting the win, Hearts of Oak still holds the advantage and only needs to win one of the remaining two games of the season to be crowned champions of the 2020/2021 Ghana Premier League season.
