Head coach of Accra Hearts of Oak, Aboubakar Ouattara has declared that his team has no option but to fight to avoid relegation.

The gaffer was a happy man last Friday when his team defeated Nations FC 1-0 in the Ghana Premier League.

Thanks to that win, the Phobians moved away from the relegation zone on the league table.

Speaking to StarTimes after the game, Coach Aboubakar Ouattara said his team must do everything to stay in the Premier League.

"The family has a problem; we have to do everything to solve the problem, and that's what the boys are doing.

"We need to survive. That's the only thing I can say," Coach Aboubakar Ouattara stated.

Up next for Hearts of Oak in the Ghana Premier League, the team will face Great Olympics in a tough contest next weekend.

Both teams risk relegation and will battle for the three points.
