Bright added that their job is even made easier by the fact that they have an idea of what to expect from Amaglug-glug. "We've nothing to lose and we'll be under no pressure. We've already qualified for the most prestigious Olympic qualifiers and that is what matters most," he said. The former army officer acknowledged that Batswana would be expecting a lot from his troops, especially because the game is against South Africa. However, he urged fans not to put the Young Zebras under pressure. "All I can promise Batswana is that in this game, they will enjoy it more than the one against Tunisia," he said.
