Hearts of Oak coach Herbert Addo believes his players are beginning to prove critics wrong following the team’s recent impressive rise.

The Phobians who had endured a stuttering start especially in their domestic campaign look reborn nowadays.

Herbert Addo’s side are on the threshold of further progress in the CAF Confederation Cup following an impressive away win over AC Djoliba in the first leg clash.

The Rainbow club have also appear to have picked the pieces to their stuttering domestic form.

The form of the side has left coach Herbert Addo excited by the future prospect of his team and says doubters are now being served humble pie.

“I have told them that this is a challenge to them and they should prove their critics wrong, and so far they have done accordingly.” he said.

“I believe that the players will continue to prove their doubters wrong in subsequent matches.”

Hearts rise will come under scrutiny once more again when they face Great Olympics this weekend in the Accra derby.
