UPDF Deny URA First Away Victory in Bombo

URA FC were held to a goalless draw by UPDF FC on Friday afternoon at Bombo Military Barracks in a match filled with missed chances.

In the 13th minute, Bruno Bunyaga squandered a one-on-one opportunity, striking the ball straight into the goalkeeper’s hands.

Derrick Kakooza missed the clearest chance of the first half, heading over the bar from close range in front of an open net.

Minutes later, Crispus Kusiima came to URA’s rescue with two crucial saves in one-on-one situations—one inside the box and another outside it.

In the 83rd minute, substitute Moses Okabo Aliro had a golden opportunity to give the visitors the lead, but his low effort, after rounding the goalkeeper, was cleared off the goal line.

Following today’s goalless draw, URA FC remain winless away from home this season.

URA stay in 11th position with 24 points, six behind 10th-placed Express FC, while UPDF FC is now six points above the relegation.

In their next fixtures, URA FC will host Maroons FC on April 28, while UPDF FC will visit Police FC the following day.

Matchday 25 continues this evening, with Express FC hosting BUL FC at Nakivubo and NEC FC welcoming Mbarara City at Lugogo.
