Hearts of Oak defeated Rock Stars 2-1 in a friendly game played at the Swedru Park on Sunday.

Christopher Bonney opened the scoring from the penalty spot in the 32nd minute to give Hearts a one goal lead at the break.

New signing Bernard Arthur grabbed his debut goal on the hour mark with a fine curling effort from outside the area.

Rock Stars reduced the deficit courtesy of a well taken free kick in the 75th but there was not to be late drama as Hearts held on for the win.

The Phobians are preparing ahead of their face off with arch-rivals Asante Kotoko in the President’s Cup.
