Dinare FC head coach, Tomas Trucha, has downplayed talks of his team being early title contenders for the First Division South League (FDSL), emphasising that the main focus is on taking each game as it comes.

With results coming in the way of Dinare, Trucha has, however, chosen to be wary of the results and emphasising that they are taking it game by game.
