For the fifth successive time since the Legends Cup series began in 2023, Kenya were successful. They edged Uganda by 19-17 in an equal parts entertaining and bruising encounter.

Uganda led first— also for the first time since the series started— through a Davis Kyewalabye penalty in the twelfth minute.

Then Kenya responded just before the half-hour mark through a George Asin try and a Darwin Mukidza conversion.

From that moment on, the visitors were ahead on the scoreboard. Curtis Lilako and John Allan scored a try apiece and Mukidza added one conversion to make it 19-03 by the forty-seventh minute.

Uganda attempted a comeback with tries from Lawrence Ssebuliba and Kyewalabye. Chris Lubanga converted easily for a 19-17 score with a full thirty minutes left to play.

Both teams, with, as expected, tired legs and sore shoulders, played their hearts out to the applauding fans until the final whistle.

The 19-17 score did not change as Kenya held on for the victory.

Uganda had the chance to win it at the death but a missed Kyewalabye penalty meant their wait for a maiden series victory continues.

After the match, the franchises were hosted to a dinner and prize-giving ceremony at Kyadondo.
