Masgid Noor FC and Kawafu played to a one all draw in the Kataka – Bulesa Memorial tournament game played on Thursday evening at Nkumba Kataka play ground.
Both teams scored in the dying minutes of the game in an epic encounter to square at Full time.
Former Proline star Shakil Ssekitto capitalised on Goalkeeper Shid Jumbe blunder to give Masgid Noor the lead in the 90th minute that seemed a winner to many fans but then Bernard Gibutali levelled in the 92nd minute when referee Sam Mwanika had signalled only two minutes of added time.
Masgid Noor star man Mike ‘Mane’ Sserumaga was joy to watch causing problems to the Kawafu backline the whole evening.
The share of spoils takes both teams to 4 points after winning their first group A games.
Kawafu FC defeated Lyamutundwe FC 1-0 and Masgid Noor defeated Tanda 1-0 in their opening games.
Masgid Noor will play an all star studied Lyamutundwe side in their last game that will decide their quarter final fate.
Kawafu FC will play Tanda FC in their last group game.
Kawafu FC head coach Martin Ssenabulya was happy with the boys’ performance despite not getting maximum points from their second game.
” Despite winning some other tournaments, but we have not played in Bulesa Tournament before so as Kawafu, our target is to put up a decent performance.”
” Am happy that the boys have put up a spirited performance, and we have managed a draw in the dying minutes of the game, this wasn’t by accident, I always tell my boys we have to fight to the last whistle and that’s what happened today. Our strength is in the players and am happy that am developing many players at our village.”
” Our first win against Lyamutundwe that had many SUPL players, was a big boast to us, this gave the boys confidence that they can compete with everyone. So we are ready to compete with everyone.” Ssenabulya added.
