The FUFA Big League continues this Thursday with matchday three and eight games on the card, two of which are live on FUFA TV.
Kyetume FC play its first season game after the FUFA Assembly allowed them to play in the FUFA Big League. The Nakisunga side has traveled to Yumbe to face Church founded Calvary FC at the Midigo Primary School Play Grounds.
David Mutono the Coach of Kyetume FC is a little worried because his team is playing their first season game but confident that his team can pick positive results from their first game.
‘We are trying to recover psychologically because all hasn’t been well on our side. Many issues are beyond our reach but we shall play our role as the Technical Team and the players we prepare to get the results. I am a bit worried because it is our first game of the season though I have been following up on proceedings thus updated. Like last season, our target is to get promoted to the top flight league.’ Said Coach Mutono.
In another game, Police FC hosts Kataka FC at the Kavumba Recreation Centre in an anticipated tight encounter.
Police FC Coach Angello Lonyesi is confident that his experienced players plus the home advantage will help the Cops register maximum results.
‘I anticipate a tight encounter against Kataka at Kavumba because they are a strong team with experience in the Big League. My role and technical team is to prepare the players and it is what we have done only waiting for the day. My team is composed of both experienced players like Herman Wasswa, Samuel Kayongo and Osman Mutumba plus young players who give us a good composition of a balanced team. We have to utilise the home advantage so that we collect maximum points. All the players are in the best shape except Benon Katerega and Tonny Kiwalazzi who are nursing injuries.’ Said Lonyesi
While his counterpart Godfrey ‘Toldo’ Awachango isn’t afraid of the Cops and ready to take them on.
‘We are set and hungry for victory since we narrowly missed promotion to the StarTimes Premier League last season. We are facing an experienced team but we are also experienced thus we shall go for the match with determination.’ Said Owachango
