Nii Lantey Vanderpuye was with Vision Explorers Soccer Academy when they took the lead from the spot kick, but he could help Hearts Oak to draw even when he joined them for a 10-minute period.
Former Hearts of Oak marksman, Charles Taylor was the one who successfully led the hosts to hand Auroras the 2-0 defeat.
