Hearts start celebration early

YEN.com.gh reported last Friday that Accra Hearts of Oak have started their celebrations ahead of their coronation in their final league game of the season.

The phobians were handed the Ghana Premier League title on Saturday, July 17 when they faced Wafa in Sogakope.

A video posted by the club showed head coach Samuel Boadu dancing to some serious jama in the team bus on their way to Sogakope.

YEN.com.gh earlier reported that Liberty Professionals and Ebusua Dwarfs have been relegated from the Ghana Premier League on the final day despite drawing and winning their games respectively.

The Dansoman-based club have been demoted for the first time in 22 years with Cape Coast based Ebusua Dwarfs getting relegated based on the head-to-head rule.

Liberty needed a win to survive but a draw against fellow relegation threatened side King Faisal meant they fell short by a point.

Ebusua Dwarfs finished the season, same on points with King Faisal and Elmina Sharks but the two clubs had a better head-to-head advantage over the Crabs. The Scientific Soccer Lads and Ebusua Dwarfs will now join Inter Allies in the Division One League next season.
