However, goals from Hamza Issah, Linda Mtange and Kassim Cisse sealed the big win over Chelsea that former Hearts head coach, Samuel Boadu, coaches.

In his post-game interview, Ouattara blamed Hearts stuttering form on mental challenges his players had to deal with.

“I expected to win. It’s football; we can win by 1-0, 2-0, 3-0 but we needed the points,” he told StarTimes.
