Jubilant Gaddafi FC Smashes Proline, Promoted To UPL

Gaddafi FC become the third club to earn promotion to the StarTimes Uganda Premier League (UPL) after beating Proline FC 2-0 in the FUFA Big League playoffs final on Tuesday afternoon.

They join Arua Hill SC and Tooro United FC as the three teams promoted to play in the 2021/22 Uganda Premier League.

Steven Munguchi and Frank Mulimi scored the two goals for Gaddafi that saw the club seal promotion to Uganda’s top-tier football division for the first time in their history.

Gaddafi FC started on the right footing, piling early pressure and it paid off dividends as early as the third minute.

Munguchi dashed to the near post to head home from a corner kick delivered by James Otim.

Ronald Bithum Nsumbiano who netted a brace in the game against Nyamityobora nearly doubled the lead moments later but he failed to connect home from close range.

In the 17th minute, Otim at the mercy of goal, blasted wide when Mark Bamukyaye teed him up.

Whereas Proline FC grew in confidence towards the end of the first half, they lacked conviction in the final third.

At the start of the second stanza, Proline FC coach Anthony Bongole called for the first change with skipper Noordin Bunjo who paving way for Joshua Okiror.

Madondo failed to score faced with just the goalkeeper. He attempted to dribble past Ssebwato but the shot-stopper did well to save.

However, he paid for the miss by setting up Mulimi who had come on in place of Otim.

The winger unmarked at the far post, calmed his nerves to slot past onrushing Ssebwato.

Gaddafi FC Starting XI: Paul Mujwampani (GK), Thomas Ochungo, Umaru Kyeyune, Lawrence Kasadha, Najib Fesali, Pascal Ngobi(C), James Otim, Steven Munguchi, Bithum Ronald Nsumbiano, Mark Bamukyaye, Joel Madondo -11
