Hearts of Oak Head Coach Frank Nuttal throws shade and passes sarcastic comments at his opponents Aduana Stars coaches and players after a thrilling 3 all draw at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Accra Hearts of Oak coach, Frank Nuttal seemed to be very peeved after the top of the table encounter between his side who occupy 3rd place and league leaders Aduana Stars.

The game proved to be electrifying and dramatic like any two eligible title contenders will do in any game at the tail end of the season.

It was characterized by back and forth in terms of the goals but was marred by complaints of poor officiating at the grounds by fans, media personnel and club officials.

The game which could pass for the game of the season had a rather distasteful press conference.

Frank Nuttal in speaking to media at the press conference had some vengeful remarks on the conduct of the players in the opposing team

“I feel we deserved to get the maximum 3 points and it was quite clear to everybody what went on. With me as a coach I don’t think my players will ever play a game of basketball. I don’t realize that time out existed in football. I only thought they did in basketball and so I was surprised when I saw timeouts being done by the Aduana Stars.

“The goalkeeper made miraculous recoveries and pulled some fantastic saves so clearly they have a wonderful medical department. They have more than a magic sponge to get him to recover and pull the saves he was able to produce.

"I am disappointed by the antiques out there and I don’t think it’s a different a great impression for Ghanaian football. There have games this season like the one against Kotoko in Kumasi which ended in a draw amidst the penalty controversy was still a great advert for Ghana Football. With this game although it ended 3-3 was not good for Ghanaian football."

Hearts face WA All-stars, Dwarfs, Medeama and Inter Allies in their last four games

Aduana Stars go up against WAFA, Bolga All Stars, Elmina Sharks and Ashgold. It will be amazing how the Ghana Premier League will end. It should not be a surprise that Nuttal will sound disgruntled because as at now looking at the fixtures ahead Aduana are the favorites to the title.
