2026/27 Ghana Premier League: Week 5 Match Report - Dreams FC 0-0 Hearts of Oak

Dreams FC and Hearts of Oak played out a goalless draw at the University of Ghana Stadium on Saturday, with neither side able to find the breakthrough in a largely balanced encounter. Dreams FC showed an improved performance compared to their previous outings, but their efforts were not enough to secure a first league victory of the season. The game produced no clear-cut chances, with both teams creating only half-chances and neither side taking enough risks to seriously trouble the opposition. Hearts of Oak goalkeeper Benjamin Asare, returning from Black Stars duty, was rarely tested as Dreams struggled to create openings in the final third. The two teams enjoyed periods of possession, but neither was able to exert sustained pressure or take control of the match. The goalless draw also means that no goals have been scored in the last two meetings between the two sides. For Dreams, the result leaves them still waiting for their first league win of the campaign, with pressure continuing to mount on coach Wilfred Dormon. Despite the improvement in performance, the young Dreams side still have plenty of work to do, particularly in the attacking third, where they need to show greater urgency and take more risks in search of goals. Hearts coach Nebojsa Kapor admitted his side struggled to progress the ball effectively and said they must find a way to create more opportunities. The draw means Hearts of Oak move temporarily into second place, although their position will depend on the results of the other teams over the weekend. They have now gone back-to-back games without a win. Hearts will return to action at home against newly promoted Port City FC, while Dreams FC travel to face Karela United in Tamale. For Dreams, the pressure will continue to build as they search for their first victory, while Hearts will look to turn their improved league position into another winning run.Source: ghanasoccernet.com
