The Red Eagles went all out at the start and were rewarded six minutes in when Godfrey Lwesibawa cheekily looped the ball over the visitors’ defence to Erick Kambale on the left who calmly crossed for George Senkaaba to tap into an empty net, it was also his sixth of the season.

Eric Kambale and George Senkaaba combined for the first.

The opener seemed to have disorganized Wakiso Giants as they couldn’t contain the constant attacks from Express FC’s midfield, Charles Musiige to be exact, the pacey midfielder caught the entire defence napping when he sprinted from the centre line up until when he slotted home to double the lead.

Wasswa Bossa’s half time talk seemed to have spurred the team further because it was business as usual at the restart, Wakiso Giants goalkeeper Samson Kiirya was called up on several occasions to save the day.

Seven minutes into the second half, Godfrey Lwesibawa slotted home a freekick to make it 3 – 0, the winger now counting four goals and as many assists this season.

Lwesibawa’s strike was the final nail in the coffin for the Giants.

For Charles Musiige, scoring his first goal was the highlight of the day, promising to score more in the upcoming games.
