Accra Hearts of Oak will be counting on teenage sensation Torric Jibril to help them win the league title.

The Phobians have struggled in the second round of the league which has seen their 14 point lead slashed to two.

With Hearts now neck-and-neck with arch rivals Kotoko with four games remaining coach Nii Noi Thompson is confident Jibril's performance in Wednesday's President's Cup win over Eleven Wise can help the Accra side.

The 17-year-old has not been given much playing time under previous coaches but Thompson is confident the youngster can help stop the slide.

“I won't change my winning team so Tawrick will be key for us for the final stages of the season," Thompson said.

"He is a hugely talented player and all you need to do is to give him responsibility and belief.” he said.

Hearts are away to Kessben FC on Sunday while Kotoko make the trip to the capital to face Liberty Professionals on a weekend that could see the League leadership change hands.
