NEC Clinches Crucial Victory, Climbs to Third Place

NEC secured a vital 2-1 victory over Maroons at the MTN Omondi Stadium, propelling them to third place in the league standings with 37 points.

In a match marked by a slow start, Maroons briefly dominated the first half. However, NEC turned the tables, with the turning point coming in the 20th minute when Cromwell Rwothomio was fouled in the box, leading to a penalty kick converted confidently by Stephen Joseph Dhata. Allan Mugalu extended NEC’s lead in the 38th minute with an assist from Brain Kayanja.
