Kitara Football Club made history by securing a place in the Stanbic Uganda Cup finals after completing a double over Pajule Lions, setting the stage for a remarkable showdown with NEC.
In a decisive away fixture, Brian Aheebwa’s 15th-minute goal proved to be the difference-maker, securing a narrow yet crucial victory for Kitara. With a 4-1 aggregate win over Pajule Lions, Kitara have secured their first-ever appearance in the Stanbic Uganda Cup final.
The victory not only propels Kitara to the final but also keeps their hopes alive for a potential league and cup double, as they trail league leaders BUL by just one point in the premier league standings.
The upcoming final against NEC, scheduled for May 25, holds significant historical significance as both clubs will compete in the final for the first time since their promotion to the premier league in the same season.
