Uganda Premier League | Results

• Vipers 2-1 Police
• Kitara 1-3 BUL

Allan Okello scored twice as Vipers edged Police 2-1 in the Uganda Premier League encounter at St Mary's Stadium, Kitende, on Friday.

Brian Obedi scored Police's goal in the end-to-end encounter that pulled a mammoth crowd under the floodlights.

Okello gave the home side the lead in the eighth minute of the game.

Police's custodian Edward Kasibante clumsily cleared the ball, thus placing it on Okello's foot before the attacking midfielder placed it at the back of the net with the outside of his boot.

However, the visitors remained composed and found the deserving equaliser at the stroke of the first stanza through Obedi.

The forward beat his marker before he wrapped the ball with his feet guiding the ball in the top corner, and Vipers custodian Denis Kiggundu was totally beaten.

As the game seemed to drag towards a one-all draw, Okello once again regained Vipers' lead with eight minutes to full-time.

Salem Ekbad's effort bounced off the frame, and Okello was in a perfect place to tap into an empty net as Police's backline looked on.

The victory takes Vipers on top of the log with 13 points while Police remain 10th with seven points after playing six games.
