Kotoko took the lead after Yussif Mubarik turned home a rebound from a free kick in the 57th minute before Hearts stole a draw at the death with a header from Caleb Amankwaah in the 87th minute.

Speaking during the post match press conference, the Hearts of Oak coach was happy with the results and explained the early substitution of Gladson Awako.

"It was a fair results for Hearts. It is always a big game so coming back to get a draw is always difficult so I think we have done well."

"Awako can play 90 minutes. I pulled him off because he had a knock at the early stages of the game he couldn't do what he was supposed."

"When you working as a team and one thing breaks, it affects the whole team. Awako couldn't give incisive passes and wasn't at his best due to the knock and that affected us." He concluded
