The Phobians locked horns with Heart of Lions at the Kpando Sports Stadium, hoping to secure a win to end a three-game winless streak.

Having struggled to score goals this campaign, the record Ghana FA Cup holders fired blanks once more, a situation that has left head coach Mas Ud Didi Dramani unimpressed.

Speaking in his post-match interview, Didi Dramani praised his players for their efforts but stressed the need to continue pushing to become better.

“I think that they [the players] put in the right energy, the right efforts, but I think we need to improve in certain key areas.

“We have transformed so much, but we need to improve in some moments. We have a lot to improve on,” Didi Dramani said.

Following the draw against Heart of Lions, Hearts of Oak have failed to close in on league leaders Medeama SC.

The Phobians sit third in the league standings with 42 points, but could fall out of the top four if results from the other games on Sunday go against them.

They now trail leaders Medeama by four points and three behind defending champions GoldStars who will both clear their week 26 fixture on Sunday.
