Kampala Capital City Authority (KCCA) FC have reclaimed the Azam Uganda Premier League following a hard fought one all stalemate away at their bitter rivals Express FC in Wankulukuku.
The city lads have hit the ultimate goal in a very fascinating fashion especially after leading the pack for nearly the entire season with several mix ups in between that almost offered the trophy away to their closest rivals Vipers.
Vipers’ (1-1) identical result at home against party spoilers URA FC confirmed coach Mike Mutebi’s first ever championship after a long voyage around several local clubs that include Maroons and SC Villa.
Veteran striker Vincent Kayizzi pressed the panic button after sending Benjamin Ochan to the wrong direction with his 28th minute penalty. Former KCCA FC striker Tony Odur had been brought down inside the forbidden area.
Muzamir Mutyaba restored hope to the impatient fans striking four minutes after the interval.
The draw pushes the city lads to an assailable 56 points, four above dethroned champions Vipers SC
The champions will be crowned on Friday at Nakivubo stadium after their clash against Jinja based Sadolin Paints FC.
Vipers chance for an accolade this season remains in the Uganda Cup where they have a tough hurdle over KCCA FC in the semis.
