- NEC 0-0 Police
NEC and Police fired blanks in the Uganda Premier League encounter at MTN Omondi Stadium, Lugogo on Tuesday.
Before the game got underway there was a moment of silence in honour of assistant referee Peter Kabugo who passed away last week.
It was an end-to-end affair that saw several chances created, but none would change the game.
NEC nearly took the lead through Cromwell Rwothmio, Paul Mucureezi, and James Jarieko but failed to find the back of the net.
In the 23rd minute, Gideon Odong thought he had given the hosts the lead but his goal was cancelled for an infringement.
In the second stanza of the game, the visitors greatly improved taking control of the middle park but were not lethal enough in the final third.
Muzamir Mutyaba nearly gave the hosts a late victory but his venomous effort bounced off the frame.
The draw left NEC in the third on the table with 16 points levelled on points with Vipers while Police FC sit seventh with 11 points.
