Aliro then fed off Simon Namwanja’s squared pass to side-foot in the second just past the half-hour mark.
Four minutes to the break, Kimbowa literally put the contest to bed, feeding off Aliro’s pass to make it 3-0 to the hosts.
Gaddafi them brought themselves back into the contest as Amos Kirya poked in fron close range to reduce the deficit.
With 10 minutes to play, debutant Sam Ssenyonjo added his name onto the score-sheet as he fired home off Aliro’s set-up.
