Maroons FC 1-1 Express FC
Michael Birungi turned villain after putting to waste a would be Express FC winning goal after he was left with the keep to beat in a match where he scored a stunning goal but which was not enough to claim three points after Maroons FC equalized to leave the game at one all draw.
Express FC are fighting relegation and could have gone to Tuesday’s mouthwatering game against city rivals KCCAFC with morale had Birungi buried the opportunity he received on the plate.
Birungi who worked his socks off in this fixture and his colleagues looked like they wanted the three points but did not possess the mental ability to accomplish the mission.
Maroons under Asaph Mwebaze played to their ability and most of the time caught the visitors on the wrong side with counter attacks.
Express FC allowed the hosts into the game when they failed to clear a loose ball in their keeper’s area only to be punished by Abdallah Ssenyonga at the start of the second half.
The result leaves the Red Eagles above Proline.
