Hearts of Oak confirmed their Ghana Premier League status for next season following their away win over Bechem United on the final day.
The Phobians twice came from behind to record a 2-3 win at the Nana Fosu Gyeabour Park on Sunday, June 16, to survive relegation.
Emmanuel Owusu opened the scoring for the Hunters with a brilliant strike before Kofi Agbesimah grabbed the equaliser for the away side with a deflected header.
Bechem restored their lead in the 59 minutes, 14 minutes after their return from recess, but their celebrations were cut shot as the Accra-based side tied the score to make it 2-2.
Shortly after their equaliser, Yaw Amankwah Baafi scored to put the Phoabians in the lead for the first time in the final-day fixture.
Hearts held on to their lead to secure all three points on the road and beat the relegation scare.
