Express FC secured a well-deserved 2-0 victory over KCCA FC in a thrilling Uganda Premier League clash at Hamz Stadium, Nakivubo, on Thursday.
The Red Eagles made their intentions clear early on. Just three minutes into the match, Isaac Wagoina appeared to be shoved inside the penalty box, but centre referee Atiku waved play on.
Moments later, the game suffered a brief stoppage when referee Atiku required medical attention after going down injured.
KCCA came agonisingly close to breaking the deadlock in the 34th minute when Saidi Mayanja’s powerful strike rattled the crossbar before the Express defence managed to clear the danger.
Soon after, Sammy Ssebaduka set up Charles Lwanga, but Express goalkeeper Mathias Kigonya produced a sharp palm-away save to keep the game level.
Express struck six minutes into the second half. Wagoina showed great composure, finishing coolly past Mutwalibi Mugolofa to put the Red Eagles ahead.
They nearly doubled their advantage shortly after when Henry Wamala beat Mugolofa, only to see his effort crash off the woodwork.
With KCCA pushing for an equaliser deep into stoppage time, their defence was caught napping. Derrick Ddungu capitalised on the lapse, applying a clinical finish to seal all three points.
The result elevates Express to sixth place with three points from two matches, while KCCA remains rooted to the bottom of the table.
