Hearts of Oak head coach, Aboubakar Ouattara, says he is not a happy man despite his side surviving relegation from the Ghana Premier League.
Hearts survived the drop by the skin of the teeth on the final day as they twice came from behind to beat Bechem United at the Nana Fosu Gyeabour Park.
Yaw Amankwah Baafi scored the winner for the Phobians to ensure they maintained their status in the top flight for another season.
A defeat at the hands of Bechem would have condemned the Accra-based side to the lower division and despite their survival, Ouattara was far from a happy man.
"To be frank, I am not so much happy because that is not Hearts of Oak's position," he said.
"When we started the second round, after 3-4 matches, we were just seven points behind the league leaders. Today, we have struggled to survive.
"I think it's very bad for us."
With Hearts of Oak's survival, Great Olympics joined Bofoakwa Tano and Real Tamale United as clubs to have been relegated from the league.
