The Uganda Cranes were treated to a celebratory dinner last night by Uganda’s Ambassador to DR Congo and Congo, H.E. Matata Twaha Magara, following their 1-0 victory over Congo and successful qualification for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON).
The event took place at the Grand Lancaster Hotel in Brazzaville.
The dinner served as a moment of pride and camaraderie, with players, coaches, and team officials joining Ambassador Magara in reflecting on the team’s journey through the qualifiers.
Speaking at the event, H.E. Magara congratulated the team on their achievement, emphasizing the unity and determination that propelled them to success.
Midfielder Travis Mutyaba, who scored the winning goal in the match against Congo, was lauded for his performance, while the entire team received encouragement to prepare diligently for the AFCON tournament in Morocco next year.
Focus for the Uganda Cranes turns to the CHAN 2025 qualifiers next month with Uganda set to co-host the tournament in February.
