Hearts hold Dwarfs, move to within three points of league title

Hearts of Oak can clinch their first league title in over a decade with their next win after drawing 1-1 away to Ebusua Dwarfs on match-day 32 of the 2020/21 Ghana Premier League Sunday night.

The Phobians head into the final two games of the campaign three points and the head-to-head advantage in their favour over second-placed Asante Kotoko.

Relegation-threatened Dwarfs were determined to secure all three points at Cape Coast Sports Stadium and boost their survival chances.

Captain Denis Korsah appeared to deliver that when he broke the deadlock with a free-kick routine in the 83rd minute.

But Dwarfs were left stunned in the third minute of stoppage time by the unrelenting league leaders through striker Kwadwo Obeng Jnr. who equalized with his 10th goal of the campaign.

The 1-1 stalemate meant Hearts maintain their three-point gap with title rivals Kotoko who also recorded the same scoreline at home to King Faisal on Saturday.

Ebusua Dwarfs, meanwhile, are 14th in the league standings and just a point above the drop zone.
