Bibiani GoldStars head coach Stephen Frimpong Manso says he was confident his side would get a good result against Hearts of Oak after working on their lapses.
GoldStars snatched all three points at the Accra Sports Stadium against Hearts on matchday 24 of the Ghana Premier League with Mawuli Wayo scoring the only goal of the game.
The result means Frimpong Manso's men are yet to lose a game in their last five games in the league with three wins and two draws.
The gaffer revealed the win was the reward for the work they had done in solving the team's shortcomings in the last few days.
"Normally, we concentrated more on our attack when we had the ball [but] without the ball, that is when we had lapses in our team," said Frimpong Manso during the post-match interview.
"But this time, we made sure to rehearse it. I was very sure that if we were able to do that, if we are not able to win at least we would get a draw."
GoldStars' goal came through a rushed decision by the Phobians goalkeeper to restart play after claiming the ball from a cross.
His attempted kick came off his opponent in the box before Wayo scored from close range.
The win sees the Bibiani-based side rise to 11th on the league table with 10 games to go until the end of the season.
