FRANCISTOWN: A weekend game between TAFIC and Matebele was a decisive one in many respects, a catch us if you can dare.

TAFIC beat Matebele 3-1 as other chasers continue to breath down TAFIC’s neck in the battle for the FNB Premiership league title. Matjimenyenga’s win puts the team on 33 points, three ahead of second placed Township Rollers with 15 games played. TAFIC scored through Thatayaone Nkwapa before Boy Lechaena equalised for Matebele.

The home side regained its lead after the Democratic of Congo (DRC) nationals, Kazadi Gauthier and Jeagogo Lwamba scored in the second half. Lwamba scored with a scorcher to take his tally to nine goals, which is the highest in the league. TAFIC will look to increase the lead when they play their reverse fixture against Matebele midweek. If TAFIC win against Matebele away next week, there is also optimism they could go on and get a positive result against defending champions, Jwaneng Galaxy in their next fixture.
