The phobians will take on Ghana premier league champions, Wa All Stars in a semi-final encounter at the Obuasi Len Clay stadium on Sunday. Both sides are meeting for the first time in the semi final stage of the competition, and it is expected to be a feisty encounter. Hearts of Oak edged out second tier side Danbort FC in the quarter final stage in Accra while Wa All Stars overcame Berekum Chelsea to progress to this stage. The Phobians who had their players dazzle many at the WAFU Cup of Nations will have the feel-good factor going into Sunday’s game. Frank Nuttal is confident his team is well prepared to face the Wa giants in the competition, saying “the group of players will be very focus and very motivated to try and win the game. “Nothing changes while 5 players have been away with the local Black stars. The rest of the players have been working very well and very hard so we will all be ready for the game,” he added. Captain Thomas Abbey who tops the Ghanaian scoring chart insists his team is poised to book a place in the final of the competition. “We met them in the league and we scored them and now semi-final game so the mentality of the players has changed towards that game, so by all means we will score them,” he said. Hearts of oak are keen on breaking their FA Cup trophy duck of 17 years but have stiff opposition from Wa All Stars side vowing to atone for their dismal league title defense campaign with the FA Cup trophy. Dubbed Super Sunday, all semi final clashes will be honoured on the same day on October 1. By Nana Akua Amankwaa|TV3 Sports|3news.com|Ghana]]>
