    VISION SPORT NEW VISION, Monday, September 5, 2016 65 UGANDA QUALIFIES FOR NATIONS CUP Uganda Cranes ratings Denis Onyango 8 He was steady. On three occasions the visitors came close but the Mamelodi Sundowns goalkeeper was alert. Nicholas Wadada 8 He was solid at the back. His signature overlaps were also in play. He could have done even much better with good crosses. Joseph Ochaya 8 He had a great day. He was not only assertive but also very cre- ative in initiating attacks. His defensive play was also well above average. His only weak point came in crosses and free kicks. Murushid Juuko 6 He did what was expected of him keeping the opponents at bay. He was however at times unnecessarily rough, a trend that got him a yellow card. Isaac Isinde 8 As always, he was one of the pillars that held Uganda’s defence together. He also covered up well for his overlapping fullbacks. Khalid Aucho 8 He perfectly executed his role of shielding the defence. He not only blocked passes but was also unbeatable when it came to marking. Moses Oloya 7 His dribbles had the visitors on the back pedal on several oc- casions. He later seemed to lose steam and was substituted by Godfrey Walusimbi. Kizito Luwaga 7 OUR ANTHEM WILL PLAY AT AFCON 2017 He had some dazzling runs. But his fi nal touch was always lack- ing.
