Defence continues to be an area the Lautoka football side has been focusing on as they prepare for their round 11 clash with Ba in the Vodafone Premier League.

Coach Ravinesh Kumar says following their 1 all draw with Suva, he has noticed that for the last 6 rounds, they have been conceding goals.

“The other thing I’m expecting from the team is not to concede any goals because what we have seen is that each in and every game goals have been scored against Lautoka so we are targeting goals not to be scored against us.”
