Hearts in comeback win over ten-man Goldstars 

Two second half goals from Isaac Mensah and Gladson Awako ensured Hearts of Oak their first win of the season against Bibiani Goldstars on Saturday afternoon.

Hearts came from behind to record a 2-1 home win over ten-man Bibiani Goldstars in the match-week four of the 2022/23 Ghana Premier League season at the Accra Sports Stadium.

The Miners commenced the fixture on a good note which saw Prince Owusu Kwabena scord a belter to take the lead in the 9th minute.

Hearts were frustrated by the visitors in the midfield, which forced them to keep possessing the ball in their half, with no shots on target.

In the second half, Bibiani Goldstars goalkeeper, Joseph Baah, was shown a straight red-card for unsportsmanlike behavior, when he punched Yassan Ouatching. Hearts Serbian coach, Slavko Matic, made tactical substitutions with the introduction of Ibrahim Salifu, Jeordon Otanga Mvouo and Isaac Mensah as replacements for Caleb Amankwah, Samuel Inkoom and Eric Esso respectively.

The introduction of the trio made an instant impact for the home side as substitute Isaac Mensah snatched the equalizer. Awako secured all the three maximum points for the Phobians with a stunning free-kick on the 88th minute of the game.
