FT: Masese Three 1-2 Masese Two
Venue: Walukuba West Community Centre playground.
Today Saturday 5th 2021 marked the fifth matchday of the 2021 Moses Oloya Tournament with both teams from Masese in action.
The game between Masese Three and Masese Two was played at Walukuba West community Centre playground.
In the game, Masese Two went into an early lead through Denis Amori’s 15th-minute goal to give his team an early lead just before Esbon Alafi doubled the lead five minutes later to make it 2-0.
At the end of the first period, both teams had tried their luck but Masese Two were in a comfortable lead with the opponent’s hopes only remaining in the second half
In the second half, it looked like Masese Two were determined to maintain their lead where we saw both Sande Omuzibu shirt number 7 and Aaron Shirt number 16 receiving yellow cards for time-wasting in the 78th and 79th minute respectively.
Masese Three continued pressing forward until they found the back of the net in the 80th minute courtesy of Lopudu Patrick with a consolation for the home team.
According to the organizers, the use of open playgrounds is still a challenge. This is the case considering the COVID-19 pandemic; so they are looking forward to getting a better Stadium that doesn’t attract many fans as per FUFA rules and regulations and in line with COVID-19 standard operating procedures.
The next game in the fixture will be between Masese One and Veterans at Walukuba West Community Centre playground on Sunday 13th 2021.
Here are the concluded matches;
