Accra Hearts of Oak coach Slavko Matic has challenged his players to fight and earn a spot in his team as he looks to build a competitive team capable of challenging for titles.
The Serbian has had a strong start to his tenure, winning his first two games. He first defeated Bibiani GoldStars 2-1 in Accra, and Hearts of Oak only narrowly defeated Kotoku Royals last weekend.
Accroding to coach Matic, he wasn’t impressed with his side in his first two games, showing signs of weakness in some areas.
Speaking after after the game against Kotoku Royals, Slavko Matic said,
“I want to bring competition to the team, I have said I want to get a better option for us, we have a lot of games and every player would play.
“No player is guaranteed an automatic start, every player has to work hard and earn a spot in the team.
“We want to try the best combination for each game, you saw Gladson Awako and Salifu Ibrahim in the first half with the best combination” He concluded.
Hearts of Oak face Karela United this weekend in matchday 7 of the ongoing BetPawa 2022/2023 Ghana Premier League.
