Uganda Premier League: Byabachwezi hat-trick sends BUL top as Express beat KCCA FC

BUL produced the biggest result of Thursday’s StarTimes Uganda Premier League action, beating Kataka 4-1 at BCS Stadium in Bukedea to make it two wins from two.

Derrick Byabachwezi gave the visitors an early lead in the fourth minute and doubled the advantage in the 21st minute with his second of the evening. Kataka pulled one back shortly before half-time when Ali Sentamu converted from the penalty spot after Ismail Tamubula was brought down in the box.

BUL, however, restored their two-goal cushion five minutes after the hour mark, Byabachwezi completing his hat-trick after being set up by Frank Katongole. Simon Oketch Achidi added a fourth after Ssewagudde provided the assist, completing a convincing away victory for the visitors.

The result takes BUL to six points from two matches, while Kataka remain on one point. At Hamz Stadium, Nakivubo, Express recorded their first victory of the season with a 2-0 win over KCCA.

The two sides traded chances in a goalless first half, with KCCA coming closest when Saidi Mayanja’s effort struck the crossbar in the 34th minute.

Express goalkeeper Mathias Kigonya also produced a timely save to deny Charles Lwanga. The Red Eagles broke the deadlock six minutes after the restart when Isaac Wagoina finished past KCCA goalkeeper Mutwalibi Mugolofa.

Henry Wamala came close to doubling the lead when his effort hit the woodwork, before Derrick Ddungu sealed the points in stoppage time after capitalising on a defensive lapse. Express move to sixth place on three points, while KCCA remain without a point after their opening two matches.
