Ahead of Saturday’s regional tour match, the Uganda Cranes had their last training session at the Mbale Municipal stadium on Friday evening.
The training training was cheered by a large crowd of spectators who were very excited upon seeing their favorite stars.
“I am happy to see Uganda Cranes train on a barren ground. I have never seen any of the players live. I thank FUFA for choosing Mbale of all places to bring the team here. This is the reason i will travel to Namboole to watch our game with Comoros on 3rd September 2016” John Mukwaasi, a businessman based in Mbale town told www.fufa.co.ug as the training progressed.
All the 22 players who traveled completed the one hour session.
The match will be played at 4 p.m, hosted by Eastern Region (Mbale Municipal Stadium) with players coming from Bugiri, Jinja, Kamuli, Pallisa and Mbale.
The Eastern region coach is Abbey Bogere Kikomeko, who recently guided Kirinya-Jinja S.S to the top flight league.
