Ten-Man Bugweri Upset Holders Busiki in MTN Busoga Masaza Cup

The MTN Busoga Masaza Cup kicked off in spectacular fashion on Saturday, with
ten-man Bugweri delivering a stunning 2-0 victory over the reigning champions Busiki. The
atmosphere at Bugweri District Headquarters playground was electric as thousands of fans,
including the Kyabazinga of Busoga, William Wilberforce Gabula Nadiope IV, turned out to
witness the seventh edition of the tournament.

The match, which set the tone for this year’s competition, saw Bugweri dominate the Nendha
Hill Group in a thrilling contest. Despite a strong start from both teams, it was Bugweri who drew
first blood. The breakthrough came in the 37th minute when a corner from the industrious
winger Mathias Kasadha was deflected into the net by Busiki’s towering defender Fahad
Mukose.

After the break, Bugweri continued to press, and their persistence paid off in the 57th minute.
Kasadha, once again at the heart of the action, laid in a pass for Arafat Nkola, who volleyed
home a stunning goal from 25 yards, doubling Bugweri’s lead. Despite a late setback with
defender Isma Kagere being sent off for time wasting deep into injury time, Bugweri held on to
secure a memorable victory.

 

Bugweri’s Saza coach, Emmanuel Balyejusa, praised his team’s collective effort. "Our spirit of
togetherness helped us win today. Now that we have a strong beginning, there's no turning
back," noted Balyejusa.
On the other side, Busiki’s coach, Dennis Watuke, pointed to a lack of cohesion in his team.
“Our players lacked a proper combination because of coming late to the camp,” Watuke said.
As the tournament continues, fans can look forward to more exciting action next weekend with
three matches on Saturday and one on Sunday.

 

The fixtures are as follows:
Saturday, August 10 Matches:
Bukono vs. Bugabula at Ivukula Subcounty Playground
Luuka vs. Kigulu at Kiyunga Saza Ground
Bukooli Namayingo vs. Butembe at Namayingo Primary School Playground

Sunday, August 11 Match:
Budiope vs. Bulamogi at Irundu Playground
Bunha vs. Bukooli Bugiri at Buluuba Hospital Playground

MTN Uganda has significantly invested in this year’s edition, injecting over Shs 550 million. The
top four teams will compete for prize money of Shs 13 million, Shs 9 million, Shs 6 million, and
Shs 4 million, respectively.
