Looking ahead: Monene has put the Mazembe defeat behind PIC: KENNEDY RAMOKONE

Gaborone United (GU) women's team coach, William 'Raizor' Monene, has conceded that his side did not come to the party when they played against defending champions, TP Mazembe, in their second group stage CAF Champions League game on Wednesday.
