We should not dwell on the defeat - Yeboah

Striker Samuel Yeboah says there is no time for anyone in the Hearts rank to allow their head to drop following their painful 1-0 defeat to rivals Kotoko in the Ghanaian top-flight on Monday.

Soulama Abdoulaye's howler gifted the Porcupine Warriors a vital win in the capital to ease the pressure on the team.

Hearts have been made to lick their wounds after the painful defeat.

But veteran striker Samuel Yeboah has urged the team not to dwell on the defeat and forge ahead in subsequent games.

“We came in with the intention to win, and were dominating too but unfortunately, they got a goal and everything changed,” Samuel Yeboah told facebook.com/accraheartsofoak.

“We did our best, but it is one of those things; we will try to fix the problems [we had in this game].

“I think we have another game in front of us so there is no time [to brood over the defeat]. We have to focus [our minds to it] and look forward. I know we will go and win against [Berekum] Chelsea [in our next game].

“It was not a bad day – we dominated the game, we were pushing and trying – but the goal separated the two of us. As you can see, it is not a goal that they worked for but it is one of those things; it is not like they were extraordinary. It is only unfortunate that we conceded in that manner.”
