Hearts of Oak coach Ouattara Aboubakar has expressed profound frustration following his team's disappointing 1-0 loss to Aduana FC in the Ghana Premier League fixture at the Accra Sports Stadium.

The Phobians were dealt a blow by Kelvin Obeng's lone goal during the matchday 30 encounter on Sunday, leaving Ouattara visibly upset during the post-game interview.

This defeat marks Hearts' third loss in four games, with previous defeats against Legon Cities and Accra Lions further exacerbating their recent woes.

Ouattara did not mince words in his assessment of his team's performance, bluntly criticizing their struggles and bemoaning their lack of motivation and overall poor display.

He highlighted their inconsistency and failure to perform up to par on the field.

"We played badly. They didn’t have any motivation today. I don’t understand what happened. Very disastrous, disappointed completely. These boys I can’t understand them; today you are good, tomorrow you are bad. I don’t understand," Ouattara remarked.

"Today was a very bad game, a very bad game. We played 90 minutes and didn’t register a shot on target. I am not happy, seriously I'm not happy."

The loss to Aduana FC comes just before their crucial match against arch-rivals Kumasi Asante Kotoko on Sunday, May 26 in Kumasi.

Currently, Hearts of Oak sits in 12th place on the league standings, reflecting their recent struggles and the need for significant improvement.
