Vipers SC will play BUL FC in the 2024 FUFA Super 8 final after edging Uganda Cranes Select 1-0 at the MTN Omondi Stadium on Sunday.
Allan Okello scored the winner for Vipers, who largely controlled the game, on 90 minutes to secure the final date. Vipers and BUL meet on August 31 to battle it out for the top honours.
BUL themselves secured their final’s slot by edging another fancied side, Kitara FC, 1-0 on Saturday courtesy of a Pascal Ngobi 63rd minute winner at Lugogo.
The Jinja-based side will hope to defend the title they won last year when they beat URA 3-2 on penalties after normal time had ended goalless.
This year is a big upgrade for Vipers, who finished sixth in the same tournament last year.
The FUFA Super 8 normally sets the ball rolling ahead of the new football season in Uganda.
