FRANCISTOWN:  TAFIC assistant coach, Kopano Maleke is confident his players will adjust to the demands of the BTC Premiership, after the team lost their opener, 1-0 to Orapa United.

The team’s flaws particularly at the back were on show on Sunday, as the visitors spurn several goal scoring opportunities.

“We are coming from the First Division and we were playing a big team. We expected to struggle a bit since it was the first match.  Going forward, I have a lot of confidence that we will improve. When we started, we gave Orapa United too much respect.  But we improved in the second half. I am optimistic that the boys will gain confidence as time goes on and eventually adjust to life in the league,” Maleke said.
