Uganda Cup (Round of 16):
- Ndejje University 0-1 Sports Club Villa Jogoo
Sports Club Villa Jogoo required a hard fought 1-0 victory against FUFA Big league outfit Ndejje University during a round of 16 Uganda Cup duel at the Mutesa II Wankulukuku stadium on Thursday.
Right back Joseph Nsubuga brushed home the day’s lone decisive goal barely five minutes to the half time break.
Nsubuga was well positioned to have a slight touch onto a teasing free-kick delivery from Martin Kizza on the right flank.
Before the goal, Kizza had set up Godfrey Lwesibawa but the latter’s heavy touch to the ball denied him from close range.
From then on, SC Villa Jogoo defended well and missed doubling the lead when Kizza’s wall pass with George Ssenkaba set him free but was denied with a goalkeeper to beat incident.
Ndejje University’s Anwar Ntege was a thorn in the flesh of the Jogoos’ backline for long spells of the game.
SC Villa Jogoo joined top flight sides as Vipers, KCCA and Proline as the successful premier sides to the quarter finals.
Meanwhile, Kitara humbled Seeta 4-0 at the Boma play ground in Hoima, Kansai Plascon ejected top flight club Mbarara City at Kakyeeka and Synergy eliminated Buganda side Busula 2-1.
Fourth division club, KJT remains the lowest ranked club left standing in the quarter finals.

The date for quarter final draws will be communicated by the FUFA Communications Department in the due course.
KCCA is the reigning champion.
