Emmanuel Mugume failed to bury an easy tap in front of the goal. The forward failed to control an inviting freekick before the ball was cleared in the 10^th minute.

Herman Wasswa calmly controlled Tony Kiwalazi’s corner but was not allowed to get another touch on the ball as it was quickly cleared away.

Before the first half ended, Isaac Ogwang broke the deadlock with a great effort of a rebound after Busei’s custodian earlier blocked Mugume’s attempt.

Four minutes into the second stanza, Ogwang doubled Police’s lead. The forward met a through ball before he calmly guided the ball at the far post.

In the 62^nd minute, Simon Peter Mugerwa introduced Regan Male, Brian Obedi, and Daniel Otto to replace Ogwang, Mugume, and Tony Kiwalazi.

Seven minutes later, Gabriel Eragu put the icing on the cake with the third goal. He was on the end of a counterattack that was started by Male.

The victory sends the Cops to the next round of the ongoing knockout tournament.
