Hearts of Oak are one victory away from clinching the Ghana Premier League after they scored a late equaliser against Ebusua Dwarfs on Sunday to remain three points clear of Asante Kotoko.

Kwadwo Obeng Jr scored deep into injury time – his 10th goal of the season – to salvage a point for the Phobians as the match ended 1-1 at the Cape Coast Stadium.

Dwarfs, who are battling relegation, thought they had won all three points when Dennis Korsah-Akoumah scored in the 85th minute with a long-range effort that found the bottom corner.

The draw means Hearts have the opportunity to win the title in front of their supporters next weekend as they host relegation-threatened Liberty Professionals in a regional derby at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Hearts have a better to head record against second-placed Kotoko with two matches remaining.
