Accra Hearts of Oak made it two wins from their last two games with a 2-1 victory over Nsoatreman FC in a Ghana Premier League fixture on Sunday, March 3, 2023.

The Phobians came from behind, overcoming a one-goal deficit to defeat Nsoatreman 2-1 and ascend three places in the Ghana Premier League table.

Walid Fuseini shot Nsoatreman FC into the lead following a series of defensive howlers from the Hearts of Oak defenders.

Salifu Ibrahim equalized for Hearts of Oak shortly after the first-half break. His low cross was deflected into the net, eluding the Nsoatreman goalie who had initially dived in the direction of the cross.

Hearts of Oak got their second goal and eventual winner from Ivorian forward, Kassim Cisse who finished off a brilliant team move by the Phobians.

Following the victory, Hearts of Oak have moved to seventh on the league log with 27 points from 19 matches.
