Aboubakar Ouattara clashes with journalists after Hearts of Oak’s win over Medeama

Hearts of Oak coach, Aboubakar Ouattara, clashed with journalists following his side’s hard-fought win against Medeama SC on Sunday.

The Phobian Club ended their four-match winless run with a 1-0 win over the Yellow and Mauve at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Raphael Amponsah’s long-range effort in the first half gave Hearts of Oak the needed win.

Despite the win, some sections of the fans criticized the team for their second-half performance.

Asked about how content he was with his team’s display against Medeama on Sunday, Ouattara said, “Sometimes, I ask myself, what do you [journalists] want? When we win, the performance is not good. When we play well and lose, then you criticise us. Tell me the truth, what do you want?”

“Me, I need three points. If I get the three points, all this commentary is not my concern. The table is not about performance; we want three points,” the Ivorian manager added.

Aboubakar Ouattara is no stranger to spats with journalists, after previously labeling questions thrown at him in his post-match defeat against Kotoko in December as unreasonable lottery questions.

Meanwhile, the win has propelled Hearts of Oak to the 4th position on the league log with 40 points. They will hope to continue their mini-revival when they travel to play Vision FC at the Nii Adjei Kraku II Sports Complex.
