The head coach of Hearts of Oak, Slavko Matic has reacted to his team’s defeat to Bechem United in the Ghana Premier League.

The Serbian tactician lost his first match since taking charge of the Phobians on Monday afternoon when the Phobians were beaten 2-1 by the Hunters.

Speaking in his post-match interview, Coach Slavko Matic lamented over the defeat, adding that his team gave everything in a bid to avoid losing.

“Nobody likes to lose but we gave to our opponents everything today. In the first 15 minutes, they scored two goals. We know they have good transitions but we made tactical mistakes.

“When it’s an open ball and you don’t have good defensive transitions, you must go big. We tried to take the ball. We gave them space. Also, they had one more chance and shot. We gave everything to them. And after that, it is very difficult. Our players start to get nervous and today we lose. Very cheap,” Coach Slavko Matic explained.

Courtesy of the defeat, Hearts of Oak are now 5th on the Ghana Premier League table.
