“It gives us dignity. At last we get the recognition we deserve. All things were being done in Gaborone. More so our talented sportsmen and women, performing artists have moved there. We are sure they will move back home when they see that we are moving forward as Francistown. We thank Botswana Football Association And the Ministry of Youth, Sport and Culture who found it fit to bring the game to Francistown.”

“ I am very happy it will be my first time seating in the stadium watching a game of this magnitude and Zebras for that matter. However, I do not expect much from our boys. I can only hope for a draw of 0-0.”
Kolisani Albert (31)
“This is a milestone for Francistown and it will give the informal sector a chance to make profits as a lot of people are expected to be at the stadium including tourists. Hotels and guest houses will also make a lot of profit and this goes a long way in promoting tourism in our country.”
Maipelo Takwe (38)
“ I cannot define the way I feel. I am over the moon. Finally my son, who is a soccer fan will get the chance to watch. I pray the boys win and raise our flag high.”

“I have bought a ticket, but I have a feeling the Zebras will lose and disappoint us. I am just going there for the love of soccer mme ga se sephiri mang le mang o a itse re ya go jewa.”

“I am delighted and I request people to go to the stadium in large numbers to support the national team because at times the support is what the team needs to win. I am optimistic the Zebras will wallop Burkina Faso 4-1.”
