Ssenoga completed a personal brace in the 55th minute, tapping home from close range thanks to Onzima’s delivery.

Habert Assimwe sealed the win for Express in the 76th minute, calmly guiding the ball past the goalkeeper into the back of the net.

The victory propels Express to seventh place with 12 points from nine games, while Calvary remains at the bottom with only one point after eight games.
