The most recent fixture between Ghana's two most glamorous clubs was staged yesterday, with both sides failing to find the back of the net.

The goalless draw means the Porcupine Warriors end the first round of the 2021/22 season at the top of the league table, with Hearts 12 points adrift of their rivals.

Mosimane, who is one of the most successful coaches on the continent, led Cairo-based powerhouse Al Ahly to bronze at the recently held FIFA Club World Cup.

In an interview with sportscaster Owuraku Ampofo, Mosimane hinted he would want to watch a live game between Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko at the stadium.

“I would love to come to Ghana and watch the Super Clash. Next time, Insha Allah I’ll get an opportunity to watch Hearts of Oak and Asante Kotoko because I know what such a game means,” Mosimane told Owuraku as quoted by myjoyonline.

The 57-year-old gaffer was quick to wax lyrical on former AC Milan and Inter Milan icon Sulley Ali Muntari, who lasted 60 minutes in the Super Clash.

“I saw that the legend is back playing for Hearts of Oak. Ahhhh Muntari, what a midfielder he is. It’s always a pleasure to watch Muntari play,” An awe-struck Mosimane said.
