Hearts lost 4-3 on penalties at the University of Ghana Stadium following a goalless draw at the end of 90 minutes.

With the game ending 0-0, penalties was the decider on the day.
Asamoah Boateng and Samuel Amofa missed their penalties while Golden Kick converted four of theirs to ensure they knocked out the Phobians.
