Coach Isabirye’s reaction

We are playing Lugazi FC away from home, I know it is a tough one because Lugazi has just drawn against Mbarara City, so the team must be desperate for a win.

Our aim is to get three points from every game we play, and that has helped us win the last two matches and go into this game wanting three points.

I know it’s not going to be an easy game, but we shall do whatever it takes to win the game. The preparations have been good, and the boys know what is at stake in tomorrow’s game.

Defender Kelvin Barni’s remarks

We thank God for the gift of life and for pushing us this far. The team is in good condition and well motivated ahead of the game. We are carrying the same attitude from our previous game into tomorrow’s game so that we get maximum points and maintain our winning run.

To all our fans, thanks for always standing with us, and I’m encourage you to turn up in big numbers tomorrow and rally behind us.
