“It’s the first game of the season but I think we were not sharp like I expected,” said Baroka coach Morgan Mmamila.

“We were losing the ball a lot in the middle giving away the ball cheaply. I am welcomed to the NFD, that long ball. You have to fight for that long ball and they were doing that also.

“I think we should have done better. Although they did play, but I think we should have done better. I will take this point with pride and we will fix where we need to fix but I think I am adjusting quicker.”
