Hearts of Oak clinched a vital 1-0 triumph over Berekum Chelsea at the Golden City Park, bringing an end to the home side’s remarkable ten-match unbeaten streak.
The decisive moment arrived in the 56th minute when Mawuli Wayo delivered a precisely executed low shot that found the back of the net.
The first half was a fiercely contested battle, with both sides struggling to carve out clear opportunities. Chelsea, renowned for their tenacity on home turf, appeared well-structured but were unable to penetrate Hearts’ resolute defence.
Following the interval, Hearts increased their intensity and soon found the breakthrough, with Wayo’s goal proving to be the pivotal moment of the match.
This victory marks Hearts’ third consecutive win against Berekum Chelsea under the management of former coach Samuel Boadu, who is now at the helm of Chelsea. Moreover, it extends Hearts’ unbeaten streak against Chelsea to ten matches, with the Blues’ last victory over them dating back to 2019.
