FUFA Super 8 | Results

KCCA FC 1-2 URA FC

URA FC registered a 2-1 victory against KCCA FC in the FUFA Super 8 at MTN Omondi Stadium, Lugogo on Friday.

It was a deserving victory for the Tax Collectors who recently lost their head coach Sam Timbe.

In the fourth minute, Enoch Walusimbi fouled Usama Arafat in the dangerous area and the center referee awarded the hosts a penalty.

Moses Waiswa stepped up to the occasion but Denis Otim made a superb save to keep the scores goalless after five minutes.

In the 23rd minute, Ivan Ahimbisibwe's powerful effort was too much for KCCA goalkeeper Antony Emojong to handle, and URA took the lead.

Five minutes later, Emojong made a stunning save denying Ahimbisibwe who had gone through a forest of bodies.

At half an hour mark, Filbert Obenchan headed home a free header after being set up by Saidi Mayanja to level matters.

Joseph Ssemujju remained with a keeper to beat after making a good run but his effort only found the side of the net.

Seven minutes into the second half, Muhammad Shaban was so close to giving KCCA the lead but Otim stretched to keep URA in the game.

In the last minute of the game of the game, Norman Nuwamanya set up Laban Tibita who regained URA's lead late.

It was a painful loss to the Kasasiro Boys who had turned up in heavy numbers for the evening football fiesta.

The result means URA FC will play BUL FC in the finals of FUFA Super 8 while KCCA FC will face SC Villa in the semifinals of the tournament.
