Hearts to play RTU in Accra following NSA approval

Hearts of Oak will host Real Tamale United (RTU) at the Accra Sports Stadium on Sunday after securing approval from the National Sports Authority (NSA).

Sunday’s match will be the first Ghana Premier League game at the venue since the NSA closed down the facility to sporting activities.

Since the NSA communicated its decision, Hearts of Oak, Great Olympics and lower tier clubs who use the facility were forced to find alternate venues.

Hearts were forced to host the super clash against Asante Kotoko and the Ga Mashie Derby, in Kumasi’s Baba Yara Stadium.

On Monday, the NSA opened the Accra Sports Stadium to a sporting activity for the first time when the Black Queens used the facility for their training.

The Queens have since been training ahead of the third round Paris 2024 Olympic Qualifier versus Zambia at the same venue.

The match is scheduled to kick off at 4 PM on Friday.
