Why AFC Leopards coach Tomas Trucha is not happy with Dandora Stadium
AFC Leopards coach Tomas Trucha has sent a passionate plea to the club to resolve their stadium standoff quickly since they are missing out a lot by playing at Dandora Stadium.
Responding with good humor, the 25-year-old French forward said, "[I have] no chance, I think so too!"
