Berekum Arsenal preserved their premiership status as drama unfolded on the final day of the Glo Premier League.

The Gunners lost heavily, 4-0 to Hearts of Oak at the Accra Sports Stadium but a late equaliser by Chelsea against Mighty Jets saved their blushes.

Hearts captain, Osei Bonsu opened the scoring from a penalty in the 7th minute before Mahatma Otoo doubled their lead in the 19th minute.

An own goal by Mohammed Basha in the 31st minute put Arsenal beyond recovery as the Phobians appeared ruthless.

Hearts returned from the interval determined to haul in the goals and they made it 4-0 after 52 minute when Ollenu Ashitey scored his debut goal of the season.

The Phobians finish third on the standings.

After the final whistle, Arsenal players looked dejected until news broke that Chelsea had rallied back to draw 1-1 with Jets. And their jubilation surpassed what fans of Hearts of Oak had exhibited.
