Hearts of Oak's head coach, Aboubakar Ouattara, points to psychological hurdles hindering his players' performance as the team bounces back with a resounding win over Berekum Chelsea in the Ghana Premier League.
The Phobians' recent triumph over Berekum Chelsea marks a turnaround from a dismal spell, sparking hope for a stronger finish to the season.
Ouattara expresses relief and anticipates a confidence boost for his squad following the convincing victory.
Addressing the team's mental challenges, Ouattara emphasizes the importance of maintaining a positive mindset amidst external pressures.
“I expected to win. It’s football; we can win by 1-0, 2-0, 3-0 but we needed the points. I told you we had a mental problem. We have some people who want to pollute the minds of the boys, it was a psychology problem," the Ivorian gaffer said after the game.
Hamza Issah's opener, followed by goals from Linda Mtange and Kassim Cisse, secured a crucial victory for the Ghanaian giants.
Hearts of Oak gears up for their next challenge as they prepare to face Aduana Stars in Accra in two weeks' time.
