• Police 0-1 Kitara

Kitara secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Police in a Uganda Premier League encounter at Kabaka Recreational Grounds on Thursday.

Jude Ssemugabi was the hero for the Royals, scoring the only goal of the match in the 54th minute.

He expertly guided home Solomon Okwaalinga’s long-range free-kick with a well-placed header, sealing all three points for Kitara.

The first half ended goalless despite both teams creating promising chances on a soggy pitch.

Patrick Kaddu came close to breaking the deadlock in the sixth minute, but his effort drifted narrowly wide.

On the other end, Police's Brian Obedi tested goalkeeper Chrispus Kusiima with a powerful strike, but the custodian was equal to the challenge.

Frank Tumwesigye also had two great opportunities but was unlucky to miss the target from close range.

As the match neared its conclusion, Arthur Kiggundu produced a crucial goal-line clearance to deny Gerald Ogweti and preserve Kitara's lead.

The victory lifts Kitara to fourth place with 32 points, while Police remain in 12th with 23 points after 21 games played.
