I don’t know what came over Philip to get the red card against Hearts of Oak – Nsoatreman GM

Published on: 26 September 2023

Nsoatreman FC general manager, Eric Alagidede, has lamented why the club’s captain, Philip Ofori, to commit a foul and get a straight red card against Hearts of Oak in their game on Saturday.

The centre back was sent off after only 34 minutes into the Ghana Premier League week two fixture against the Phobians on Sunday at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Nsoatreman went on to play with ten men for the remainder of the game and lost 1-0 to the Phobians.

Reacting to the incident leading to the red card, Alagidede said on a normal day Philip will not do what he did.

“Philip is one of our most dependable center backs. Wearing the captain’s armband, I don’t know what really came over him because on a normal day Philip would not do that.

“I am a bit surprised he did something like that. In all even with ten men, we gave Hearts of Oak a good run for their money.”
