Assistant coach of Hearts of Oak Abdul Rahim Bashiru expressed worry over his side’s poor first-half performance in their stalemate against Berekum Chelsea.
The Phobians came from a goal down to salvage a point in the 1-1 draw against Chelsea at the Accra Sports Stadium in their matchday 12 fixture on Sunday.
Gideon Asante Yeboah came off the bench to score in the 70th minute after Emmanuel Essian had given the visitors the lead in the opening half.
Assessing his side’s performance at home, Bashiru expressed concern over their start to the game but praised their resilience in the second period.
“It was so sad to drop points here again but I will congratulate my boys for they really fought and came back very well… that wasn’t the plan but is good,” he told StarTimes.
“We had some decent chances. They were better in the first half but we took the show in the second half. We had some decent chances to even lead the game but sometimes that is how football is.
“That wasn’t the plan — to wait and come back in the second half. It is a 90-minute game. We have to start very well and finish very well. So that is my worry but for all, I congratulate my boys for doing so well.”
The draw means Hearts move to sixth on the league table ahead of their next game against league leaders Aduana Football Club on December 2.
However, before that will be the MTN FA Cup Round of 64 tie against FC Nania.
