Vipers Sports Club played to a barren stalemate with Express FC in a StarTimes Uganda Premier League match played at the Muteesa II Stadium, Wankulukuku on Tuesday. It was a game characterized by very few clear-cut openings from either side. Denis Otim pulled off a brilliant save to deny Vipers’ captain Milton Karisa in the 37th minute and Cromwell Rwothomio also came close. In the second stanza, the hosts threatened a couple of times through Arthur Kigundu whose header went over the bar, and Hussein Ssenoga whose effort was saved by Fabien Mutombora. The Red Eagles came close again only for defender Hillary Mukundane to stand strong and make an outstanding clearance to deny Joseph Akandwanaho. Next Up After earning a point, Express is now positioned ninth on the 15-team log with 15 points and will visit Maroons FC on Friday, 16th December.
