KCCA FC completed a double over Onduparaka FC in the StarTimes Uganda Premier League in a narrow 0-1 away win at Greenlight Stadium, Arua.

Teenager Sserwadda nearly drew first blood for the visitors KCCA FC but his effort flew wide from a well crossed ball down the right by Kigozi Samson after a quarter an hour.

On 28 minutes, Magambo’s well weighted free kick was cleared away by the hosts Onduparaka. Kigozi won possession controlled well but his rebound went flying over the frame of the goal.

Three minutes after the half hour mark, Sadat Anaku picked a loose ball in the midfield and went for the spectacular from close to 30 yards out but his effort landed on the roof of the net.

Three minutes to the interval, Sserwadda teed up Lwanga but his final ball let him down. The effort went begging with the hosts’ custodian at his mercy.

After recess, Aliro Moses and Keziron Kizito replaced Kigozi Samson and Gift Ali just two minutes after the hour mark.
