At the Accra Sports Stadium, the Phobians ended a four-game losing streak on Sunday thanks to a spectacular long-range goal from Raphael Amponsah.
After a recent slump in play, Asare, who recorded his 13th clean sheet of the season, talked about the team's resolve.
"After our loss on Thursday, we came into this game with determination," he remarked. We were aware that we needed to seize all three points. We give thanks to God, our supporters, and everyone who came to cheer us on.
"Football is like that—you can lose or draw, anything can happen," he continued, reflecting on the unpredictability of the game. "But we always have the mindset of winning. The focus is always there." With the win, Hearts of Oak move up to fourth place in the Ghana Premier League standings with 40 points after 25 games, after playing Vision FC on Matchday 27 at the Nii Adjei Kraku II Sports Complex.
