Elsewhere, 10-man URA were held 1-1 by another relegation-threatened side in Blacks Power in Lira.

URA went ahead through Alfred Leku on 11 minutes but Dickens Okwir levelled for Blacks Power on 24 minutes to force shared spoils.

The Tax Collectors were to later lose Benjamin Nyakoojo to a red card on 54 minutes. URA now drop two places to sixth on 35 points from 25 matches while Blacks Power remain second from bottom on 15.
