REACTIONS.

Murushid Juuko – Center back.

“We’ve prepared very well in the defence, midfield and attacking side of the team so that we go to Kitende and get the three points, we were disappointed with the result of the last game but tomorrow the boys are ready, if we follow the coach’s tactics we shall surely win. It’s also a great opportunity to face my former team but I want to win and it will be a great motivation for me as a player”.

Wasswa Bossa – HEAD COACH.

“After playing three games without a win, we think tomorrow’s game is a must win, for us to remain in the title race, we have to win against our closest challengers and the boys know we have to win also we hope some players will be available both from suspensions and injury so we’re set”.

A win for the Red Eagles takes them to 40 points but keeps them 3rd on the log. The game will kick off at 4:00pm and it will be live on Sanyuka TV.
