Vision FC Technical Director Annor Walker has walked back his pre-match remarks about defeating Hearts of Oak within 25 minutes.The former Great Olympics coach claims his comments were made to promote the game and not to disrespect the Phobians.Walkers comments came under scrutiny after Vision FC drew 1-1 with Hearts of Oak in their Ghana Premier League matchday 27 encounter at the Nii Adjei Kraku Park on Sunday.Addressing the issue in an interview with Asempa FM, he stated: Hearts is a big club, I have a lot of respect for them. My pre-match comments were for promotional purposes, not meant to disrespect them.The game itself saw few moments of brilliance, with both sides failing to find a clear edge.Hearts of Oak took the lead late in the first half when Kelvin Osei Asibey punished a defensive error to slot home the opener.Vision FC equalized in the second half through Adjetey Sowah, who curled a fine shot past goalkeeper Benjamin Asare after Raphael Amponsah failed to clear the ball properly at the edge of the area.The result keeps Hearts of Oak in sixth place on 41 points, six behind league leaders Asante Kotoko, while Vision FC continue to fight for safety in their maiden Premier League campaign.
