Hearts of Oak head coach, Aboubakar Ouattara, says Division One side Home Stars FC were a difficult side to breakdown during their MTN FA Cup Round of 32 fixture.
Hearts of Oak opened the scoring in the second half after getting frustrated in the first half but eventually cruised to a 3-0 win at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium on Sunday, January 12 to seal their spot in the last 16.
“All the games in the world are difficult. Today we faced another challenge, and we won. The first half was very difficult for us, and for the first 15 minutes or so, we were under some pressure to win the ball because we couldn’t control the game.
“It’s a knockout in the FA Cup. We thank God we qualified for the next stage.” He said after the game
