Hearts of Oak edged Berekum Chelsea 1-0 at the Golden City Park on Sunday afternoon, ending the hosts' ten-match unbeaten home streak in a fiercely contested Ghana Premier League Matchday 31 fixture.

The decisive moment came in the 56th minute when Mawuli Wayo pounced on a defensive lapse to fire home a low strike, handing the Phobians a vital three points.

The first half was largely uneventful, with both sides locked in a midfield battle and struggling to create clear-cut chances. Chelsea, known for their defensive solidity at home, found it difficult to break down a well-drilled Hearts of Oak side.

After the break, Hearts showed more urgency and were rewarded when Wayo calmly finished past the Chelsea goalkeeper following sustained pressure.

The win marks Hearts of Oak’s third consecutive victory over their former coach Samuel Boadu, who now manages Berekum Chelsea. It also extends the Phobians’ dominance in this fixture, stretching their unbeaten run against Chelsea to ten games—the Blues last won in 2019.

The result strengthens Hearts of Oak’s position in the top half of the table, while Chelsea’s hopes of finishing the season strongly take a hit with three games remaining.
