If the Red Eagles also do not make it, then Kansai Plascon FC (who were then known as Sadolin MUBS running scared Paints) will take up the opportunity. By Swalley Kenyi Despite being financially constrained, Express CEO University Football League Muzafaru Ssebaggala was Semifinal first leg results optimistic that they will use MUBS 1 Gulu 0 various channels to get funds. UMU 0 Nkumba 0 “If all goes like we have Return leg matches planned, soon we shall be Wednesday unveiling our new sponsors,” Nkumba v UMU Ssebaggala said. Friday Gulu v MUBS MUBS head coach Charles Ayiekho prays that Moses Kifumba continues to score when they go for their University Football League semifinal return leg against Gulu on Friday, otherwise the team may suffer a simi- lar fate like last year. Gulu ejected MUBS from the competition last year and MUBS suffered a scare in their first leg match last Friday when they struggled to pull off a 1-0 at the MUBS arena. “Gulu is the revelation for teams this year. We shall be carrying a very thin advantage into the return leg and anything can happen. So the result (1-0) is not good. I pray that (Moses) Kifumba con- tinues to score for us,” Ayiekho said. Kifumba has scored a goal in each of MUBS’s last four encounters in the University Football League including the winner against Gulu in the first leg of the semifinals last Friday and Ayiekho said after the match, “I know if nothing happens to him by Friday we shall get at least a goal from him”. The return leg off the first semifinal between Nkumba and UMU is due on Wednesday. MUBS’ Derrick Kyega (orange shirt) under siege from Gulu players. Photo by Mpalanyi Ssentongo.
