Hearts of Oak scored twice without reply in the second half to beat a 10-man Elmina Sharks in their 2020/21 Ghana Premier League match-day 25 meeting in Accra Sunday night.
Sharks midfielder Isaac Donkor received a red card late in the first half after the Phobians were wrongly awarded a penalty which was eventually wasted by striker Victor Aidoo.
Isaac Mensah came off the bench to snatch the opener after exerting pressure on an out-of-position goalkeeper Bawa Martey in the 67th minute.
Midfielder Benjamin Afutu then sealed the 2-0 victory when he nodded home from close range in the 79th minute.
Hearts remain second in the league standings with 43 points, two adrift leaders Asante Kotoko.
