Hearts coach refuses to give up on title

Published on: 27 February 2012

Hearts of Oak coach Nebojsa Vucicevic insists his side are still in the hunt to win the Ghana Premier League title despite failing to close the gap on leaders Asante Kotoko. 

The Phobians spurned several chances on Sunday night to draw 0-0 with bottom club Bechem United at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Hearts stuttering display meant Kotoko-who beat Liberty Professionals 2-0 early Sunday- have opened a six-point lead at the top.

The Serbian trainer motivated the fans and his players by saying all is not lost.

"Today we were very unlucky and yes Kotoko win and now goes six point but we look forward to the next game on Wednesday," Vucicevic told MTNFootball.com.

"We still have 14 games more so we will see what happened.

"I understand the supporters are not happy but I am here for that. Today we don’t have luck but like I said there are plenty games so we will see what happens in the next games.”

Hearts will hope to make amends when they travel to Obuasi on Wednesday to face an improving AshantiGold side.
