MUBS 5-4 YMCA
Nine goals, a red card and charged emotions defined the titanic Beach soccer clash that witnessed MUBS outwit arch rivals YMCA 5-4 at Lido beach on Sunday.
MUBS’ Joachim Goloba scored individual four goals as Elvis Kasujja had got the other of the Hurriken group encounter, the first game played on the day.
Allan Zirimenya netted a hat-trick and Jonah Kikoyongo scored for YMCA in a match that witnessed another Allan entity – Katwe red carded for elbowing.
The first period ended one goal apiece for the two clubs.
Still, the second period ended two goals for either side and the decisive quarter was taken by MUBS who scored at the death.
MUBS’ team manager Hilary Kimbugwe sighed with relief after the final whistle from FIFA referee Ivan Kintu Bayige, who was assisted by his other two FIFA badge holders – Shafic Mugerwa and Muhammed Ssenteza.
“We needed this victory at all costs. That is why the players gave their best effort to win the game”
MUBS only picked their second victory in four games, putting them on six points, same number of points as Dalumba International, whom they play next Sunday.
YMCA will take on the International University of East Africa (IUEA) next Sunday at Lido beach.
