Express FC managed a point in the goalless draw away to Mbarara City FC on Friday afternoon at the Kakyeeka Stadium in Mbarara.

The visitors came into the game chasing their first league win in seven outings and could have opened the scoring in the 23rd minute but John Byamukama’s cross which could have been converted by Joseph Akandwanaho was intercepted by Mbarara City goalkeeper Ssekeba.

The First period saw forward George Senkaaba and Joseph Akandwanaho try to open the scoring for the visitors but both their efforts fell short.

After the break Mbarara City FC tried to penetrate the visitors’ backline but Denis Otim was on hand to contain the situation. The draw takes the Red Eagles to 33 points after 22 games played.

JAMES ODOCH – INTERIM MANAGER.

“We’ve tried everything in our power to win the game, the boys followed the instructions but we didn’t manage to win, we scored what i thought was a legimate goal but the referee cancelled it which was very unfortunate, we shall retreat and prepare for our next game”.
