Pilsner Super 8 (3rd Quarter final):
- Onduparaka 0 (4) – 0 (3) Tooro United
Onduparaka Football Club became the third side to progress to the semi-finals of the 2019 FUFA Pilsner Super eight tourney.
Christened as the caterpillars, Onduparaka who are currently coached by Charles Livingstone Mbabazi ejected Wasswa Bbosa’s Tooro United 4-3 in post match penalties at the Green Light Stadium in the West Nile district of Arua.
Normal time of this contest had ended goal-less.
Former Kitara FC forward Amisi Muwonge, substitute Malish Jamal (had replaced teenager Ezra Bida), new signing Dudu Ramathan and the returning prodigal son Abdulmalick Vitalis Tabu were on target for the home side.
Onduparaka goalkeeper Richard Anyama was on tip top form to save Godfrey Lwesibawa’s final kick after midfielder Paddy Muhumuza had blasted over the bar.
Tooro United’s Fredrick Kigozi, Ibrahim Kayiwa and Charles Musige scored their respective three penalties.
Tabu was named the pilsner man of the match, earning Shs 200,000 for the hard earned sweat.
The fourth and final quarter final will be played on Tuesday, 6th August 2019 when Wakiso Giants play host to KCCA at the Wakisha play ground (Kabake Kyabaggu Stadium).
