Accra Hearts of Oak Sporting Club head coach Aboubakar Ouattara delivered a snorty response to a reporter’s question in a post-game press conference after Hearts suffered their fourth straight loss in all competitions to arch rivals Kumasi Asante Kotoko.
Hearts lost 1-0 to Kotoko at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi with Albert Amoah scoring the winner in the 95th minute off a defensive mix up between Hearts goalkeeper Benjamin Asare and defender Kelvin Osei Asibey. (Click highlighted text to read full story)
Amoah’s goal was virtually the last kick of the game that had him score in the 43rd minute but his strike was ruled off for offside.
Hearts lost twice in the league last season and missed out on winning the Democracy Cup to Kotoko in the offseason before the late mistake gifted Kotoko a fourth win on the bounce.
Asked after the game whether he believes his team gave the win away to Kotoko, Ouattara was less than impressed with the question and responded stating,
“Do I look like a Father Christmas to dash someone points?”
Hearts went into the game on a four league game unbeaten run. Scroll down to watch Albert Amoah’s winning goal.
