    AFCON U20: Uganda, Congo share spoils in second group game

    Uganda and Congo played out to a thrilling two-all draw as the two faced off in the second Group B game at the ongoing U20 Africa Cup of Nations in Egypt on Thursday.

    The game played at the Suez Canal Stadium on Thursday was full of thrilling moments with either side taking the lead at different intervals.

    Coach Jackson Mayanja made one change from the team that had started against Central African Republic with Saidi Mayanja getting ahead of Travis Mutyaba.

    Congo drew first blood, scoring as early as the seventh minute through Josna Loulendo

    He dashed to the near post to head home Prince Aldy Soussou Ilendo’s corner kick delivery.

    Uganda found its way back into the game with Titus Ssematimba restoring parity.

    The midfielder capitalised on a goalkeeping howler by Christophe Wamba to drill home after the shot stopper fumbled with Rogers Mugisha’s initial free kick.

    The Hippos went into the lead just after the half hour mark through Saidi Mayanja whose drive from close range was too strong for the goalkeeper.

    Captain Isma Mugulusi did the donkey work on the right wing to perfectly set up fast approaching Mayanja.

    Congo were reduced to ten men following the second booking of captain Claude Ngongara at the stoke of half time.

    The second half saw both teams moving forward as they chased the next goal of the match under the bright floodlights.

    Striker Paul Dembe missed two chances to put the match to bed, failing to capitalize on both occasions.

    The Red Devils leveled matters in the 72nd minute from another set piece, this time Prince Mombouli heading into the back of the net.

    Substitute Travis Mutyaba had the chance to win it for Uganda at the very end but couldn’t find the much desired drive to beat off Congolese defenders.

    The results means both Uganda and Congo are level on four points each while Sudan have three and Central African Republic are yet to pick up a point.

    The Hippos will return to action on Sunday in the final Group game against neighbours South Sudan.

    AFCON U20: Dominant Uganda Hippos ease past Central African Republic

    Uganda made a brilliant start to their expedition at the 2023 TotalEnergies U20 Africa Cup of Nations, winning the opening Group game against Central African Republic on Monday.

    In the game played at Suez Canal Authority Stadium, the Hippos were dominant right from onset, taking charge of every aspect and won 2-1.

    Action between Uganda and Central African Republic.

    Captain Isma Mugulusi and John Paul Dembe scored a goal each for Uganda while Boris Gbenou got the consolation for Central African Republic.

    Central African Republic barely troubled Uganda and their resilience in the first half was broken when the Hippos hit the second gear in the second half.

    Titus Ssematimba, Ivan Irinimababazi and Travis Mutyaba all came close in the opening minutes but didn’t put the chances to good use.

    A minute upon return from recess, Apollo Kakogwe thought he had fired Uganda into the lead but his overhead kick effort was ruled out for offside.

    The deadlock was broken a minute later with Isma Mugulusi scoring from close range.

    Uganda Hippos celebrate one of the goals.

    Ssematimba’s headed effort met Mugulusi just around the goal line and his flicked effort found the back of the net.

    The captain nearly doubled the lead two minutes later with a well curled effort outside the area but only went just wide.

    Ssematimba saw his ferocious effort in the 69th minute ricochet off the post.

    It was John Paul Dembe who doubled Uganda’s advantage in the 74th minute with a some effort when he beat off a defender before curling into the top left corner.

    John Paul Dembe celebrates after scoring.

    Coach Jackson Mayanja made changes bringing on John Paul Kakande and Umar Lutalo for Mutyaba and Rogers Mugisha respectively.

    Emmanuel Mukisa also came on for goal scorer Dembe in the 87th minute.

    Central African Republic pulled one back deep in stoppage time through Gbenou but it was not enough to salvage them at a point.

    Uganda will return to action on Thursday facing Congo Brazzaville who also won their match 2-1 against South Sudan.
