HEARTS DRAW WITH CHELSEA (BACK PAGE, APRIL 1, 2010)

An injury time goal scored by Accra Hearts of Oak’s prolific scorer, Samuel Affum, enabled the defending champions to split points with Bechem Chelsea in their 24th midweek Glo Premier League fixture at the Berekum Golden City Park yesterday.
The homesters came back from recess with well-rehearsed notes after a first half deadlock to score the opener through their rasta-haired midfielder, Isaka Ibrahim, on the 48th minute.
Chelsea continued to pile pressure on Hearts but Ibrahim failed to find the net on a number of occassions. Chelsea’s defence, pivoted around Lee Addy of the local Black Stars fame, and with briliant saves by their keeper, Maxwell Banahene, the Phobians could not break through.
However, with determination, the Phobians moved in threateningly during the final stages of the game and finally clinched the equaliser.
