Hasaacas draw goalless with Hearts of Oak

Essipong, (W/R) May 17, GNA - Sekondi Hasaacas drew 1-1 with league leaders Accra Hearts of Oak in an exciting Glo Premier League match at the Sekondi Sports Stadium at Essipong on Sunday.

Hasaacas began their attack on Hearts straight after the kick off and managed to control the initial proceedings for well over 10 minutes before Hearts managed to turn the tables in their favour. Hearts gradually warmed themselves into the game while Hasaacas were still exploiting avenues for early goals with the match gathering momentum as the first half was about to end with

attacks and counter attacks from both sides. Hasaacas piled up pressure on the visitors on the start of the second half and were rewarded a goal courtesy a goal scored by

Ohene Yeboah in the 60th minute. Hearts changed their pattern of play after conceding the goal with their attacking machinery punching holes on the Hasaacas defence who were forced to tighten their defence to consolidate

their lead. The Phobians continued with their attack for their goal-king aspirant Obed Ansah to redeem his side from imminent defeat as he equalised for them in the 87th minute. Both sides failed to take advantage of the several scoring chances until the final whistle.
