Uganda Cup (Round of 16): Saturday Results
- Kiboga Young 0-1 Proline
- Tooro United 1-2 Kitara
Uganda Cup holders Proline progressed to the quarterfinals of this year’s edition after edging Kiboga Young 1-0 at the Mbale Municipal Stadium on Saturday.
Hamis Kiiza scored the lone goal on that propelled the holders to a great victory, a giant stride towards defending their crown they won in Masaka last year.
Kiiza had earlier missed a penalty in the opening stages of the game.
Proline missed two of their trusted guns in Mustafa Kizza and Bright Anukani who are currently camped with the Uganda Cranes team preparing for the CHAN 2020 tournament coming up in Cameroon.
Meanwhile, Tooro United lost 2-1 to Kitara at the St Paul’s Seminary Playground in Fort Portal.
Both Proline and Kitara join KCCA and Kyetume at the quarterfinal level.
KCCA ejected Masindi based Dove 1-0 at the Katushabe Playground.
Kyetume were 5-4 postmatch penalty winners over Maroons after a one-all draw at the Mighty Arena in Jinja on Friday.
The winner of the Uganda Cup earns the ticket to represent the country at the CAF Confederation Cup.
