Sunday September 3, 2023 – Lugogo
- KCCA vs SC Villa 2pm
- BUL vs URA 4pm
All roads lead to the MTN Omondi stadium, Lugogo where the Fufa Super 8 tournament comes to climax with BUL and URA fighting for glory.
The tax collectors who haven’t won a trophy in over ten years eliminated Soltilo Bright Stars and KCCA to get to the finals with both games ending 2-1.
On the other hand, BUL beat giants Vipers and SC Villa 1-0 – courtesy of a penalty by Samuel Ssekamate to get to the finals.
Paddy Muhumuza who leads URA in the dugout has described his side as underdogs.
“In reference to recent years, we are the underdogs since BUL recently won a Uganda Cup trophy and we haven’t won anything in ten years,” he started.
“But since we started this competition, our objective has been to win it and hopefully, that happens in honour of our departed coach,” he added.
For Abbey Kikomeko, there is no difference in class between the two sides but wants to win first trophy for BUL which he joined at the end of last season.
“I think we are in the same class in almost everything,” said Kikomeko. “We have worked on our weak points especially with the forward line since both goals we have scored so far came from penalties.
“I call upon our fans to come cheer us in big numbers so that we can lift this trophy.”
URA will miss the services of Laban Tibita who is on national duty but BUL have everyone available for selection.
In the third place play off game, Villa and KCCA face off at 2pm at the same venue.
