Selasi Adjei did his best to convince David Duncan he does not need to worry about the prowess of his strikeforce as he netted his third goal of the pre-season and set up another for Romeo Agban as the Phobians recorded a 4-2 over an Accra Select XI on Wednesday. 

The Phobians also had goals from Gabriel Darko and Eric Kumi as they continued their pre-season campaign with yet another comprehensive win at the Accra Sports Stadium.

Eric Kumi started the rout for Hearts as he turned in a low cross from close range following a brilliant combination between Agban and Oleenu Ashitey.

Agban put his name on the score-sheet seven minutes after Kumi's opener but the opposition halved the deficit just before the interval.

Selasi tweaking the ball through three defenders and laying a through-pass for the unmarked Agban to nail through the acute angle with a precise finish.

The former Amidaus Professionals forward made it 3-1 with a signature powerful strike from the edge of the area mid-way through the second half before Darko added the fourth.

Another consolation was grabbed by the Select XI on the stroke of full time after the defence went to sleep.
