Early goals from Cathy Nassimbwa in the 10th minute and Jovia Nakagolo eight minutes later secured the victory for the Lady Cardinals with a wonderful finish after a dribble passed the goalkeeper.
Carol Ikot, a player for the Lady Doves, attributed their loss to limited training time and strategic challenges, as many team members are based in Kampala for internships, making it difficult to practice together. “We didn’t train as a team for that game because traveling is expensive, and we struggled to strategize against KCCA,” Ikot explained.
Uganda Christian University (UCU) Cardinals are set to face Kabale University in the University Football League (UFL) on 29th October at the UCU Grounds.
In the 24th minute, Jovia Nakagolo was fouled in the area, but the center referee waved the challenge, giving Rines a goal kick.
At this point in the competition, there will be two legs instead of the single game that was played in the rounds of 32, 16, and quarterfinals.
UCU Cardinals captain Goefrey Gaganga was the star of the day scooping two individual awards before he was also named in the UFL team of the 2023/24 season.
It was a close contest from the get-go as the Canons came out of the kiln, creating a one-point (18-17) lead at the end of the first quarter.
In the first round, the Panthers won the game 69-65 in yet another close-contested game. The Canons suffered their eighth loss of the campaign in 18 games played.
Ahead of the 2024 Buganda Masaza Cup, Kyaggwe Ssaza has completed the signing of three UCU Cardinals.
