6. WAFA 3-0 Hearts

6th August 2016

West African Football Academy (WAFA) ended Hearts of Oak unbeaten way run in the 2015-16 campaign as they run riot over the Phobians by winning 3-0 on match day 23 at the Sogakope Park.

The Phobians were reduced to nothing in the first 27 minutes of the game as Komla Agbeniadan scored the first goal, Charles Boateng made it two for the home side before Agbeniadan grabbed a brace on the day.

N/B: The first criterion is the margin of the scoreline. The next one is where it happened. An away defeat to Hearts of Oak fetches more points in the ranking of the worst defeats. Also, the strength of the team is also taken into consideration: A heroic feat by a weaker side fetches more points than against a stronger opposition.

AshGold's 3-0 victory against Hearts in 1995 couldn't make the list because they were the reigning champions at the time. Maybe it could make the 6th place if the list is extended.
