Accra Hearts of Oak suffered a home defeat to lower-tier side True Life FC today. The loss serves as a troubling period for the Phobians casting a doubt if the team can go all the way to win the Ghana Premier League
This latest setback means Hearts of Oak have managed only three victories in their last ten outings across all competitions, revealing a pattern of inconsistent performance, since October 3, 2025, the Phobians have endured two losses and five draws, a run of form that translates to failing to secure maximum points in seven of their last ten matches.
While losing against their rivals may be framed as points dropped, none carry the profound sting of today’s outcome. Succumbing to True Life, a team from a lower division, in a cup competition is more than a simple upset, a defeat that does feat the club legacy.
The loss to True Life, however, is a different category of disappointment, one that no fan will soon forget.
As the dust settles on this humiliating exit, Hearts of Oak must look inward. The task ahead is not merely to rectify a poor run of form, but to restore a shaken belief and reclaim the dignity befitting one of Africa’s most celebrated football clubs.
