Tuesday, August 6
*NEC 1-1 Vipers
*KCCA 3-3 Kitara

Kitara’s Denis Omedi produced a moment of magic as his team drew 3-3 with KCCA at Lugogo, advancing to the FUFA Super Eight semifinals.

After conceding early to Joel Sserunjogi’s precise shot, Kitara swiftly equalized with a goal that will be remembered for ages.

In the 10th minute, Omedi, found himself at a tight angle after beating Hassan Mohamood, before executing a stunning rabona.

He twisted his right leg behind his standing left leg, sending the ball curling into the far corner past a stunned KCCA goalkeeper, Anthony Emojong.

Many have hailed this goal as one of the finest ever seen on Ugandan soil.

Omedi’s impact didn’t stop there. He assisted Jude Ssemugabi, who put Kitara ahead 2-1.

However, KCCA responded when Bright Anukani converted a penalty after Etienne Katenga was fouled in the box.

Just five minutes into the second half, Omedi again set up Ssemugabi for a close-range tap-in, restoring Kitara’s lead.

KCCA’s Mohamood later equalized with a header, but the team couldn’t find the two additional goals needed to progress.

Kitara edged KCCA 4-3 on aggregate, having won the first leg 1-0 at Lugogo.

Kitara now awaits the winner of the Maroons versus defending champions BUL to determine their semifinal opponent.
