Uganda Vs Namibia
Uganda will be without striker Shaban Muhammad for Thursday’s crucial African Nations Championship (Chan) match against Namibia.
Shaban picked up an injury in Sunday’s 3-1 defeat to Zambia when he came on as a substitute.
“Shaban is injured and I think it is not possible for him to play, but we have twenty-two other players,” said Cranes coach Sebastien Desabre.
The Frenchman is also hoping for a clinical display after sitters – particularly one that fell to Allan Kyambadde – were squandered against Zambia.
“We have no choice,” he said, adding, “We’ll play for a win. I hope we convert the chances in our box against Namibia because it was a problem in our first match.”
