Youngster Hamza Issah continued his scoring form for Hearts of Oak in the betPawa Ghana Premier League as they played against Karela United.
The forward was once again in the starting lineup for the matchday eight fixture with Hearts playing away from home against Karela.
Karela took the lead at the Tamale Sports Stadium through Emmanuel Boakye after just six minutes played in the encounter.
However, Issah was on hand to draw the Phobians level, netting from a well-delivered setpiece from Salifu Ibrahim to make it 1-1.
Issah has now scored four goals in his last three appearances for Martin Koopman’s side.
Richmond Ayi stepped up in the second of the game to deny Evans Adomako from the penalty spot after the home side were awarded a late penalty ensuring that the game ended in a stalemate.
The draw on Saturday now means Hearts move above Kotoko on the league table into ninth position with the latter having a game to play.
