Rwanda 0 – 2 Uganda (Aggregate: Uganda 6 – 0 Rwanda)

After a promising opening half an hour from the hosts, the Ugandan Juniors have rallied back to lead 2 – 0 by the close of the opening stanza of the game being played at the Umuganda Stadium in Gisenyi stadium.

Charles Ssebutinde’s curler on 31 minutes at the edge of the area broke down the resistance of the hosts.
Left footer, Julius Poloto doubled the lead a minute to the half time recess after a crowded goal area that followed a Muhammed Shaban crossed effort.

Uganda thus leads 6 – 0 on aggregate following a home 4 – 0 victory at Namboole Stadium.
