A section of Hearts of Oak fans in Takoradi on Friday presented a printed African wear to the Club’s head coach Kenichi Yatsuhashi despite the team’s exit from the ongoing GHALCA G6 competition.

The Rainbow Club suffered elimination from the preseason tournament after losing 0-1 to Medeama SC in their second game in the competition.

Malik Akowuah’s 74th-minute spot kick saw Hearts crash out of the competition after drawing 0-0 in their opening game with Aduana Stars.

The team’s supporters despite the painful exit showed love to the Japanese trainer by presenting him with a nice African wear branded in the colours of the Club.

Yatsuhashi is under intense pressure having led the Club to just one win in their preseason matches.

The 46-year-old could face a sack before the season begins having failed to live up to expectation since his appointment in October last year.
