Wa All Stars coach is adamant Hearts defeat won't derail title defence plans

Wa All Stars head coach Enos Adepa says lessons of their 2-1 defeat to Hearts will be put to good use in their title defence.

The northern Blues played their first match of the season on Sunday after debuting in the CAF Champions League.

''Though we lost to Hearts in our first match against Hearts, it will rather help us to put the edges together,'' Adepa said.

''As I earlier said, young talented guys have been included into the team, so we are now finding the rhythm and the right mechanism, because we’re in to defend our title.''
