“But we take the defeat in our strides and hope to turn things around in the subsequent games,” he noted.
He, however, noted that Heart was the better side and, hence deserved to win the game.
“Hearts played very well today, they did very well and took their chances early and won the game so let’s give credit to them,” he noted.
The coach said Hearts were determined to win the game, to move out of the relegation zone hence their output.
Medeama, the current league champions and Ghana’s campaigners in the CAF Champions League, have not had a smooth run in the league since it started.
However, the performance at the continental level seems to have been impressive, with a first-time entry into the CAF Champions League.
