The first leg of Ghana’s very own version of El Classico has come to an end in a dramatic fashion at the Accra Sport Staduim.
In what is always an entertaining battle, the Porcupine warriors had the chance to go ahead just a minute into the game from the spot kick but were denied by Hearts goalkeeper, Richard Attah who went full length to his right to save Kwame Opoku’s effort.
Hearts of Oak’s Patrick Razak turns went into full beast mode tormenting Kotoko’s defense but couldn’t make a huge name for himself due to his poor finishing, even though he will feel luck was against him after he struck the upright goalpost.
With an end to end battle between the two sides, the funny side of the game arrived when the Phobians had the opportunity to snatch a late victory against their fierce rivals from the spot kick but Issac Mensah fired straight into the gloves of the Kumasi based clubs goalkeeper to end the match goalless.
