Hearts of Oak were left with sour mouths on their 107th birthday after losing 2-1 Inter Allies in a commemorative match played at the Tema Stadium on Sunday.

Allies took the lead in the 12th minute through Alex Aso.

Three minutes later the Capelli Boys nearly doubled their lead as Victorien Adebayor’s effort was tipped over the bar by goalkeeper Ernest Sowah.

Ten minutes from the break, Hearts were denied the leveller when goalkeeper Saed Salfu saved Malik Akowuah’s shot.

With a quarter of an hour left, the Phobians got a consolation through Tony Quayson.
