Hearts of Oak Hearts of Oak

Bolga All Stars gave the people of Tamale a treat with one of the games of the season to pick up a point against high flying Hearts of Oak in Match Day 13 of the Ghana Premier League.

Hearts of Oak coach Frank Nuttal who has been flying high due to recent good results named a very strong side that in-form Winful Cobbinah and skipper Thomas Abbey in the starting line up.

And that seemed to do the trick with Vincanet Atinga shotting the Phobians ahead with just two minutes of the game played.

That was the kind of the start that had the possibility of dumping the spirits of the host but they responded very well and on the 25th minute equalized through Alhassan Rahim who had threatened all game.

The goal again awakened the true Phobian spirit and skipper Thomas Abbey as he has done throughout this season shot them again in-from.

Few would have predicted three goals in the first 30 minutes of the game.

But with Hearts of Oak leading they managed to throw it away again with another goal from Ibrahim Giyasu to make it 2-2.

The stadium was vibrating and the excitement was full circles. Bolga All Stars took advantage of the situation to take the lead for the first time in the Ghana. Alhassan Rahim again popping up for his second of the game.

Hearts of Oak who looked dazed picked themselves up and again pulled a chest nut from a blazing fire to get the equalizer and make the game 3-3.

Bot teams will be kicking themselves as there were numerous opportunities to take all three points.
