kccafc.co.ug caught up with KCCA FC Manager Morley Byekwaso ahead of this game and he said.
We face a very hard opposition to break down. They defeated us last season at our home but all that is in the past. We will encounter this game like we have managed the other games. We want to maintain our 💯 record of winning games and we will take that mentality in the next game. I have talked to my players to keep their feet on the ground and not to get carried away by the past wins. We have the biggest part of the marathon to encounter and this calls for patience and focus
