“I didn’t see why Evidence starts games, until I noticed something in yesterday’s game, especially when Lepasa entered. I was analyzing Evidence’s movements compared to Lepasa, the way he puts defenders under pressure without some of us realizing – he did it silently, that explains why in the last 10 minutes we were under pressure because Lepasa was just a statue there and not putting pressure on the Tunisian defence,” says Ed Mavuso.
