We Are Ready to Fight for Our Country – Watenga

Coach Paul Put is optimistic about his team's chances

Uganda Cranes head coach Paul Put is expected to stick to a familiar core for Tuesday’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against Guinea at Mandela National Stadium, Namboole.

However, key changes are anticipated, particularly in goal and midfield.

The biggest question mark remains in goal after Ismail Watenga’s costly errors against Mozambique saw him withdrawn at halftime.

Nafian Alionzi provided stability in the second half, but with Put publicly backing Watenga in Monday’s press conference, the experienced goalkeeper is likely to retain his starting spot.

In midfield, captain Khalid Aucho is expected to miss the match after sustaining a knock in training.

Ronald Ssekiganda is tipped to step in, partnering Kenneth Semakula, who has been a mainstay in Uganda’s World Cup qualifying campaign.

One enforced change will see Rogers Mato return from suspension, replacing Denis Omedi, who is suspended after receiving a red card in the Mozambique defeat.

Mato will slot into an attacking midfield role alongside Allan Okello and Jude Ssemugabi, supporting lone striker Muhammad Shaban.

Uganda’s probable starting XI:

Goalkeeper: Ismail Watenga
Defenders: Elvis Bwomono, Elios Capradossi, Bevis Mugabi, Aziz Kayondo
Midfielders: Ronald Ssekiganda, Kenneth Semakula
Forwards: Rogers Mato, Allan Okello, Jude Ssemugabi
Striker: Muhammad Shaban

With Uganda needing a win to keep their World Cup qualification hopes alive, Put will hope his lineup delivers a strong response following the 3-1 loss to Mozambique.
