Shafi Kagimu’s second-half goal makes KCCA FC’s title dreams sink even more as the former drift 9 points clear.
Second-half goals from speed merchant Joachim Ojera and Shafi Kagimu Kuchi saw URA FC complete a season double against KCCA FC.
League top performer Desse Mukwala fired warning shots in the first 10 minutes as URA FC was all looking for an early goal but couldn’t find the net as Charles Lukwago denied him chances.
As there were no goals to show in the first half, interim coach Morley Bwekwaso brought in attack-minded young stars Charles Lwanga and Hassan Musana for Samuel Senyonjo and Ashraf Mugume respectively.
Coach Sam Ssimbwa substituted Cromwell Rwothomio for tired-looking Ibrahim Dada. Rwothomio assisted Ojera’s goal in the 53rd minute. A superb Rwothomio cross found Ojera as he headed home.
And at St Mary’s Kitende, Vipers SC punished Busoga United FC in a 4 goal galore. Yunus Ssentamu got two, Aziz Kayondo and Milton Marisa added one each in a one-sided game.
It was all a tough one for inconsistent Busoga United FC for a club that has not lost any points at home this season.
However, Vipers SC saw a red card for shot-stopper Fabien Mutombora after punching teammate Aziz Kayondo.
After the final whistle, the shot-stopper rushed to Aziz and seriously punched him for reasons not yet known by club officials. But throughout the game, Fabien had been exchanging words with the attacking left full-back Aziz for most of the time.
Sources say Shaban and Bashir Asiku are serving internal club bans for indiscipline that’s why they don’t make matchday squads.
