Onduparaka win is a morale booster for KCCA FC - Byekwaso

KCCA FC head coach Morley Byekwaso believes that their win against Onduparaka is a morale booster to their chances of winning the Ugandan Premier League title.

The Kasasiro Boys have been inconsistent in the ongoing campaign and are currently placed fourth on the table with 37 points, seven less than leaders URA FC.

On Sunday, they claimed a 1-0 win over Onduparaka with Sadat Anaku scoring the only goal.

The tactician believes his charges have the confidence after the win and will continue pushing the teams ahead of them.

“We have now got the morale of pushing for more because we still have games to play,” Byekwaso said after their latest win.

“Having reached 37 points, we need to put in more effort and see that we keep on winning games as we continue to chase those ahead of us,” he added.

The win at Green Light Stadium was just the second for the Garbage Collectors, with the initial one coming way back in October 2018 when once again they claimed a 2-1 win.

The 13-time champions will be at home on Thursday to host Bright Stars, hoping to collect a further three points.

Defending champions Vipers SC are second on the table with 43 points. They have won 13 points, drawn four, and lost three while Express FC are third.

They have won 11 games, drawn seven, and lost two and as a result, they have collected 40 points.

Police FC complete the top five with 37 points from the 20 games they have played.
