The win mark the end of Hearts’ frustrating run of three drawn games in the BetPawa Premier League and its highest goal scoring game this season.
Former Techiman Eleven Wonders defender Osei Assibey starred in the win and was named winner of the Man of the Match Award prompting Hearts’ Dutch trainer Koopman to single him out for praise among a bevy of top performers.
“He is my son. I was also a central defender I like him also very much but all the players did a very good job; Ampadu (Michael), Korsah (Dennis) I forgot maybe a lot of players but I’m very happy.”
Hearts gets the chance to win back to back games for the first time this season when The Phobians take on Karela United away from home on Saturday, November 4.
