She Cranes continue with a magnificent performance in the ongoing Celtic, securing their third victory in as many games played.
She Cranes secured a hard-fought 53-51 victory against Scotland in the Celtic Cup at Emirates Arena in Glasgow, Scotland, on Friday.
Uganda started slowly as they struggled to match Scotland’s challenge but opened a four-goal (16-12) lead at the end of the opening period.
It was a tough second quarter as the tempo increased and both sides became physical but Uganda took a slim two-goal (27-25) lead in the halftime break.
Coming from the break, it was a see-saw affair in the third period but Scotland edged Uganda (40-39), taking over the driver’s seat.
However, She Cranes improved their game in the final period, thus bagging a narrow sweet victory on the day.
Mary Nuba was named the player of the match after staging a massive show in front of an electric crowd.
Uganda will take on Zimbabwe on Saturday before they finalise the championship with the tough duel against Wales.
