Morley Byekwaso

We travelled safe and sound to Lira and the players are in good shape. We had a light training session where we focused on a working on our finishing which let us down against Maroons FC. We trust that the players will implement these things on the field of play. We traveled without Wabyoona, Ayella and Obenchan due to injuries. We shall welcome Shaban back in the team and he will be part of the match day squad.
