In the 8th minute, Mike Mutyaba was fouled on the edge of the box and Kizza’s resultant freekick was saved.

On 27 minutes, Sekisambu dribbled past his marker and crossed to Nunda who headed straight to the keeper in what seemed to be the game’s best chance at the time.
In the 31st minute, Sekisambu left Venoms’ Kayondo for dead and crossed to Obenchan who dummied and Mutyaba pounced with a hard hit that had a deflection and hit the back of the net thus sending the home fans in a mega frenzy.
