Our opinion: Welshman's slow start not surprising
The former Rangers player only playing a few minutes for SK Brann should come as no surprise.
This is because before moving to Norway, Rabbi Matondo had only played 65 minutes for Rangers this season. This suggests he lacks match practice and may need time to adjust to a new club in a new country.
