KCCA were hoping to continue the perfect run but they found the Joogos up to the task and stopped their promising run to the season.

SC Villa responded well after losing URA last Friday to claim three points against rivals KCCA at Bombo stadium.

KCCA came into the game with three wins out of three while the Joogos had only collected four points from three games.

The Joogos went in front in the 15th minute thanks to Nicholas Kabonge’s effort as SC Villa continued to have much possession of the ball in the first half.

In the 86th minute Ronald Sekiganda looped KCCA goal keeer after defenders failed to clear Benson Muhindo ‘s low cross inside the KCCA box.

Brian Aheebwa pulled one back from the penalty kick for the visitors in the 87th minute after he was fouled in the box.

SC Villa captain Ashman Harisheh said they were grateful for scoring two goals against KCCA as they had planned for it.

‘’We were motivated by the fact that KCCA has beaten us a lot including scoring four goals against us last season so I told my players that it is our time to beat them’’ said Alishe
