Chiefs have not tasted victory in the last five games as they lost three times and drew twice. On the other side, TAFIC covered more than 2,000 kilometres in a space of four days as they played Security Systems midweek at the Lobatse Sports Complex. The team returned to Francistown on Thursday and travelled back to the south for their Chiefs clash on Friday.

On the pitch, Matjimenyenga did not show any signs of heavy legs, as they took the game to their opponents from the first minute. In the eighth minute, Mbatshi Elias skied his volley from inside the box while four minutes later, Kerapetse Mosimanekgosi shot straight into the keeper’s hands from a free kick. As the game proceeded, Magosi started to find their feet with skipper, Lesego Galenamotlhale orchestrating the team’s play. In the 35th minute, Thato Kebue was unlucky to have his shot blocked by the defence when the keeper was found wanting from a corner kick. With two minutes to the break, Galenamotlhale tried his luck from outside the box, but his effort did not trouble Lame Bosekeng. The teams went to the break goalless.
