Ghana lacks quality pitches – Hearts of Oak coach Nebojsa Kapor

Hearts of Oak head coach Nebojša Kapor has highlighted the persistent issue of substandard playing pitches as a significant hurdle for Ghanaian football. The Bosnian-Herzegovinian trainer, speaking after his team's narrow 1-0 win over Port City in the Ghana Premier League's Matchday Six, expressed optimism that the club will soon have a permanent home stadium.

Kapor pointed out that the University of Ghana Stadium, where Hearts currently plays, is not exclusively theirs but serves the entire nation. He emphasized the broader problem of pitch quality in Ghanaian football and his responsibilities, noting that it is not part of his role. This victory propelled Hearts to second place, three points behind league leaders Medeama.

Meanwhile, Port City, who started their first top-flight season with promise, slipped to fourth place after their second loss of the campaign. Hearts will face Vision FC in their next match, while Port City will host Dreams FC as the league enters Matchday Seven.
