Kenichi targets Ghana Premier League glory

Hearts of Oak's Japanese coach Kenichi Yatsuhashi is targeting a first league trophy for his club despite finishing the first half of the season in 4th place.

The Phobians have failed in the last six years to put up a strong title challenge but have looked good in some games in the first half of the season.

The highlight of the first half of the season is perhaps the come-from-behind victory against Inter Allies after the 2000 CAF Champions League side scored three second-half goals to pick up all three points against Inter Allies despite being 2-0 down at a point in time in the game.

Impressive victories against Medeama at the T &A Park and another against AshGold away in Obuasi in the first round has revived confidence within the Phobians faithful.

Kenichi, who himself was some few hours away from being sacked, has affirmed his desire to leave an indelible foot Print in the Phobian hearts by winning the title this season.
