Vipers SC put up arguably their finest performance of the season as they defeated Onduparaka FC 4-0 at Kitende.
The Venoms, who came into the game on the back of a 1-0 loss away to Gaddafi, were in breathtaking form at both ends of the pitch as they registered their 7th victory of the campaign.
Milton Karisa was outstanding, scoring the fourth and was involved in the opening three scored by Bright Anukani, Karim Watambala and Ibrahim Orit.
He beat Denis Ojara with pace on the right flank to deliver a low cross for Karim Watambala who’s shot was blocked by Alex Adriko’s hand for the referee to point to the spot. Anukani, stepped up and converted to put Vipers ahead.
And a minute later, Karisa led Vipers explosion forward and once again found Watambala who this time sent it into the top corner.
The Winger assisted Orit who fired in from the outside to give goalkeeper Mathias Muwanga no chance.
Karisa later found his own, chasing on a through ball before putting an icing on the cake with a beautiful finish.
Vipers were good value for the result and could have won by a better margin; Karisa was twice denied by the keeper while Muwanga dived low to keep out a Watambala rocket.
Marvin Joseph Youngman hit the post while Cromwell Rwothomio saw his bicycle kick go wide of the goal.
Onduparaka barely played with conviction, and rarely asked questions at Vipers goal. Gaddafi Gadinho sent his freekick into Fabien Mutombora’s hands while Ojara skewed his header off the target.
It’s work cut out for new coach Steven Bogere whose side remain rock-bottom with just two points in 11 games.
Vipers on the other hand climb top of the standings with 23 points, level with BUL but with a better goal difference.
