Lesotho Correctional Services Football Club (LCS FC) also known as ‘Masheshena,’ narrowly defeated Majantja FC 3-2 in a recent match that was played at the Mohale’s Hoek District Football Association (DIFA) ground.
Masheshena entered the game riding high after a morale-boosting victory against Matlama FC, while Majantja FC came into the match on the back of a loss to Bantu FC.
Unfortunately for Majantja, their winless streak continues, as they have now played three matches without securing a win or earning any points.
The first half of the match saw fierce competition, with both teams locked in a 2-2 draw. However, Masheshena pulled ahead in the second half when Makara Ntaitsane scored a decisive goal, breaking the deadlock and securing the win.
After the match, Majantja’s head coach Bafokeng Mohapi expressed satisfaction with his team’s performance despite the defeat, acknowledging that their defense struggled to contain Masheshena’s attack.
“Majantja is a young team with players lacking experience in premier league football, but they have shown commitment and growth. The club is on a journey of self-reflection, looking for ways to improve. Our mistakes today will help us grow,” he said.
Mohapi also highlighted the challenges facing Majantja, including the lack of resources and support, which has made it difficult for the club to prepare adequately for the season.
“We have set a target to win a minimum of five matches this season, and we are determined to build from here,” Mohapi stated.
On the other hand, Masheshena’s head coach Thabile Secker praised his team’s performance but admitted there are still areas that need improvement.
“We followed our game plan well, but we need to address the defensive errors that allowed Majantja to score two goals. Although we did not play at our best, we are improving with each match,” Secker said.
The league title-winning coach with Matlama concluded by emphasising the need to strengthen the backline to ensure better defensive responses in future games.
“The team’s performance in this game reflected the hard work put in during training,” Secker added.
