FRANCISTOWN: Calendar Stars coach, Rapelang Tsatsilebe, has been left frustrated with his team's performance, highlighting their tendency to concede goals at crucial moments despite playing well.

In post-match interview, Tsatsilebe bemoaned that, "we always play to our best, and then we concede a goal that picks up our opponents".
