Vipers, Mbarara City share spoils

StarTimes Uganda Premier League

Wednesday’s result

Mbarara City 0-0 Vipers

We were supposed to cut KCCA’s lead back to four points today if we were to keep it tight in the final straight.

Instead, coach Michael Nam Ouma’s charges played out a goalless draw at Mbarara City’s Kakyeka Stadium to give KCCA an all-clear with four matches left.

At 50, Vipers now trail KCCA by six points, meaning the former could clinch the title with a match to spare.

‘’We respected the opponents,” said Vipers coach Ouma, “They played a hard game, long balls and were too physical but we managed to get a point, which could count at the end.

“We still have four games to go and anything can happen because you never think that they can win all their games.

“We are just separated by six points but since KCCA has more points than us, they are enjoying the leadership. We shall fight till the end.”
