Aboubakar Ouattara, the head coach of Hearts of Oak, acknowledged that his strategy didn't exactly work against Nsoatreman in their week 12 matchup in the Ghana Premier League.

Hearts of Oak's run of three straight victories came to an end on Saturday at the University of Ghana Sports Stadium when the MTN FA Cup holders held the Phobians to a 1-1 draw.

Ouattara's team needed to rally from behind to get a point against Yaw Preko's squad, but a victory would have moved them into the top four.

Speaking following the match, Ouattara claimed that despite warning his players about the consequences, they disregarded all of his instructions.

"I witnessed it, we had a lot, and regrettably, it did occur. I informed them that this would be one of our more difficult games.

"Unfortunately, we didn't play well. Our strategy didn't work out. We acknowledged that we would have to start over. I won't go kill everyone because we didn't play right today. No, no, no, no.

"When we get to the training ground, I'll go to my house, turn off the lights, watch the game, analyze the errors, and chat with the boys."

Immigration FC will be Hearts of Oak's next opponent in the MTN FA Cup round of 64.

Ernest Thompson discusses the significance of the Black Stars management committee.

Former Black Stars management committee member Ernest Thompson has outlined the importance of these committees in overseeing the senior men's national team.

Last Monday, the Ghana Football Association declared the dissolution of the committee.

Thompson used an intervention to break a standoff between the Ayew Brothers and former Black Stars coach Kwasi Appiah as support for his claim that management committees are important.

Kwasi Appiah had issues with Wakaso, Jordan Ayew, and Andre Ayew at one point. You recall that event. Return to the past. Kwasi Appiah desired to let them go. He claimed to have let them go. Now I'm being honest with you," he said to Joy Sports.

"Look, because of Jordan, Andre, and especially their iconic father Abedi [Pele], we [the Black Stars management committee team] said, if you had issues with them on the team, we beg you to go see Abedi [Pele] and talk to Abedi because you can't treat Abedi's children that way." Inform the father and ask him if he can step in.

"We called Alhaji Hearts, who went to talk to the boys about Kwasi Appiah's worries. They came to save the team when Kwasi Appiah later agreed and brought them back. Thus, a lot of things take place at the Black Stars' management committee level. All of these are available from George Afriyie.
