Reigning MTN FA Cup champions Accra Hearts of Oak secured their place in the semi finals of the competition after  defeating lower tier side Skyy FC.

A solitary goal from Patrick  Razak made the difference for Hearts of Oak after surviving a  scare from the lower tier side who had two goals disallowed for various infractions.

It was a difficult game as  the  phobians struggled to dictate  the pace of the game as at times the lower tier side pushed the champions very hard.

The first half ended goalless as both sides were unable to break the deadlock after limited opportunities in the game.

A nicely worked team move involving Gladson Awako and Afriyie  Barnieh was finished off by Patrick Razak 24 minutes from time to make it 1-0 for the phobians.

Hearts have no taken  the final  spot  in the  last  four as  they join Dreams FC, Aduana Stars and Bechem United in the semi finals.
