Striker, Patson Daka’s brace after 20 and 65 minutes gave the Young Chipolopolo side victory as Uganda only netted the consolation through an Alex Komakech penalty.

Zambia thus makes it 4 -1 on aggregate after the first leg 2 – 0 win in Lusaka two weeks ago.

Uganda’s Pius Obuya takes on Zambia’s Wayne Museba (5) and Enock Mwepu. Obuya had a fair game before he was replaced by Ashraf Mugume in the second half.

However, Confederation of African Football (CAF) is yet to officially announce who the successful nation to the continental youth nations cup is.

This is after FUFA filed a petition questioning the ages of some Zambian players who are over aged.

The match was watched by a record crowd that included State Minister for sports, Hon Charles Bakabulindi and the FUFA President, Eng. Moses Magogo and other invited guests.
