URA stop KCCA, ends ‘faint title hopes’

Result

• URA 1-0 KCCA

KCCA’s eight match unbeaten sequence in the league came to halt and so did they faint title hopes with a 1-0 loss to bogey side URA.

Second substitute Bruno Bunyanga reacted fastest to score the winner in the 87^th minute off a rebound from Said Kyeyune shot.

Defeat is KCCA’s first since a 1-0 loss to Kitara at Lugogo on February 23.

With only six points to fight for, KCCA now are mathematically out of the title race as they stay on 45 points and 5^th on the table.
