Drama characterised the second half of the Ghana League Clubs (GHALCA) Top Four match between Accra Hearts of Oak and Obuasi Goldfield when Referee F.K Mensah showed Hearts captain Charles Taylor the red card in the 50th minute for a retaliatory offence.

This attracted the displeasure of a section of supporters believed to be Hearts fans at the Osu Stand and they threw stones and other missiles to register their protest against the referees decision. The attitude of the fans made the referee stop the game for almost 15 minutes while some management members of Hearts including the Acting Chief Executive, Mr Tommy Okine went to the stand to calm down the angry supporters.

The intervention of the Hearts top brass could not solve the problem as the angry fans continued to engage in the disgraceful act, compelling some of the Hearts players including Skipper Joe Ansah and Dan Quaye to move towards the stands to add to the efforts of the management members before everything returned to normalcy.

The game itself, which began on a slow note, saw the two sides wasting the few chances they created. Goldfields drew the first blood when Dauda Seidu dribbled past two defenders of Hearts before laying a pass for Frank Awuah who shot past Goalkeeper James Nanor in the 30th minute. Hearts took up the challenge but could not fetch the equaliser as Awuley Quaye Jnr. and Emmanuel Donkor failed to find the net on the few occasions they went forward until the whistle went for the end of the half.

On resumption, Hearts took control for most part of the game, pilling pressure on Goldfields but the iron-clad defence of the miners halted all the attacks. Hearts who exhausted all their substitutions in the second half benefited as the new men added a bite to the attack to get the equaliser in the 76th minute after Laryea Kingston had penetrated the defence of Goldfields before laying a pass for Awuley Quaye to power home a long drive for the equaliser.

Substitute Wisdom Abbey won the day for Hearts in the 88th minute when a Kingston pass to score the second goal and the winner for Hearts.
