Hearts of Oak coach Kenichi Yatsuhashi
Accra Hearts of Oak coach Kenichi Yatsuhashi has said his side is ready for their next Ghana Premier League (GPL) game as they seek to get back to winning ways after losing their last league fixture.
The Phobians will travel to the Brong Ahafo region to face the might of Berekum Chelsea at the Golden City Park and Coach Keni said they will rise up to the challenge.
He has overseen the team’s training this week to the Legon Ajax Park in preparation for this encounter and hopes it will reflect in their play on Sunday.
“Training has been very good and the players have made a very good effort,” he said, adding that “we will definitely are ready for the game”.
The Phobians will be out to defend their unbeaten away record in the league this season, and, most importantly, restore confidence to the side after their painful loss to Kotoko last Monday.
“Our away form has been good and we hope to continue with that in this game,” Coach Keni said, insisting that they are not under pressure to perform going into this game after losing to their bitter rivals.
“Our players are mentally ready and focused to beat Chelsea. Every game we play, either home or away, we are going in for three points and we will do our best,” the Japanese-American said.
The Phobians will depart Accra to Berekum on Saturday morning for Sunday’s game against a Chelsea side that has won all their five home games this season.
