• Maroons 1-0 Lugazi

Maroons registered a 1-0 victory against Lugazi in the Uganda Premier League encounter at Prison Grounds in Luzira on Sunday.

Brian Omirambe scored the only goal to give Maroons their maiden victory of the 2024-25 campaign.

It was a closely contested game from the first minute until the hosts broke the deadlock deep in the game.

In the 89th minute, Derrick Basoga's deader was denied by Lugazi right back Gift Lubega's hand on the near post.

The referee was in the right position to see what happened before he pointed straight at the penalty spot.

In the same spirit, he dished Lubega a second yellow card that saw him off the field of play.

Omirambe stepped up to the occasion before he sent the custodian the wrong way.

The victory takes Maroons to the 11th position with five points out of the possible 12.

Lugazi is stuck on the bottom of the log with one point after playing four games.
