Hearts of Oak were walloped by neighbours Accra Great Olympics 2-0 in the Mantse derby on Saturday evening in a game which their rivals could have scored more.

Coach of Hearts, Kosta Papic believes his side were unlucky to have lost to Great Olympics as he blames their ill luck.

He admits his charges started the game very slowly and were punished by Great Olympics but improved immensely as the game went on.

Great Olympics who took an early two goal lead sat back and soaked the Hearts of Oak pressure before hitting them on the break with rapid counter breaks.

Two quick goals in the first half from captain Gladson Awako- with a superb free-kick into the near post-and enterprising Maxwell Abbey Quaye.

''Two big mistakes and he conceded the goals and after that we tried our best but the ball doesn't want to go into the net. Football is like that sometimes,''  Papic told StarTimes in a post-match speech.

''Second half we played a little bit better than the first but my midfielder he struggled to do the job we wanted.

''Yes, we couldn't score- that is the problem, that is the huge problem but like I said football is like that. One day you shoot and everything is coming in, one day you try to shoot a hundred and nothing is coming in.''
