Spare Soulama of criticism — Nyaho

A board member of Accra Hearts of Oak, Dr Nyaho Nyaho-Tamakloe, has urged Phobian fans to desist from excessive criticism of goalkeeper Abdoulaye Soulama as he was already being haunted by the poor manner in which he conceded the goal against Kumasi Asante Kotoko at the Accra Stadium last Monday.

He maintained that any further criticism of the Burkinabe international would aggravate his already demoralised state, and rather appealed to Hearts fans not to unnecessarily put pressure on the club’s first choice goalkeeper.
