Dimension Data Rwenzori stunned defending champions, UAP Rhinos 17-7 at Kampala grounds last Saturday which only builds their spirits ahead of a derby affair with fellow Ugandan select side, Victoria at Kyadondo grounds this Saturday. Victoria secured their first triumph of the campaign over Buffaloes in Mumias and can book a semifinal slot if they win on Saturday Mumias defeat Rhinos.
All this tough mathematics is what Victoria captain Faisal Gama will want to do with ease but the hardwork on the pitch. “A big win! We will make it to the semis” he said. But on the other hand, Rwenzori’s team manager, Lionel Onyango is daring on how his side will win their third straight game. “We shall give Victoria a run for their money. We are working on the players’ confidence” he lamented.
Brian Odong’s last gasp at the Rhinos’ touchline sent Rwenzori through to the semis last Saturday. Anthony Kinene’s kicking on the day was bizzare, just like during the two Elgon cup duels this year. Any of the semi final ties that involves a Kampala side will be televised live on Supersport. This is the tenth edition of the Bamburi Rugby Super series.
