Hearts Olympics

Ghana Premier League champions, Accra Hearts of Oak brushed aside Medeama SC 3-0 in their semi-finals encounter at the Cape Coast Stadium, Sunday.

Goals from Benjamin Afutu, Isaac Mensah and Daniel Afriyie Barnieh sealed victory for the Phobians.

The Phobians are set for a final showdown with Ashanti-Gold next Sunday, where a win will seal a double following their earlier Ghana Premier League title triumph.

Meanwhile Hearts opponents in the final, Ashgold booked their place in the final by a 4-1 win over Chelsea after extra-time.

The Obuasi-based outfit, who lost the 2012 final to New Edubiase United, are on course to clinch their first FA Cup title since 1993 when they won their only gold.

Hearts on the other hand, are the most successful club in the history of the cup competition, with 10 MTN FA cup trophies.
