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.

He raised the concern after his side suffered another defeat at home. The Premier League rookies this time were beaten 2-0 by Matebele FC. The defeat left Calendar Stars stuck at the bottom of the log with just two points, while their opponents in the encounter moved up to 13th position with eight points.

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