The Black Satellites beat Accra Hearts of Oak 2-1 ahead of preparations towards the African U-20 tournament.Two goals from striker Mahathma Otoo and a consolation from a Douglass Nkrumah penalty was all the Satellites needed to begin what is crucially a tough campaign for Coach Orlando Wellington who must retain the U-20 trophy as well as the World U-20 trophy.Ghana became the first African team to win the World U-20 tournament after the Sellas Tetteh led, Satellites captained by Dede Ayew beat Brazil in the final in 2009.Wellington told Adom FM reporter after the game, the victory is just a perfect start for his campaign.He revealed the team will enplane to Bacelona to brush-up preparations for the upcoming competitions.For the Phobians, it was the first defeat to new Serbian coach Nobojsa Vucicevic who has the herculean task of ensuring that the Phobians are not relegated.Hearts, embarrassingly, lie third from bottom and must avoid relegation with eleven games to go.
