KCCA FC has regained the top spot in the Uganda Premier League table after securing a hard-fought 2-1 victory against BUL FC at the FUFA Technical Centre in Njeru on Sunday.

The win, courtesy of goals from Sammy Ssebaduka and Alex Yiga, moves KCCA to the summit with 20 points in nine games, while BUL remains 11th with 10 points.

The match was a closely contested affair, with BUL’s George Kasonko opening the scoring in the 38th minute.

KCCA, however, dominated the second half and equalized through Ssebaduka’s 54th-minute strike.

Yiga’s late goal sealed the win for the visitors, who had earlier created several chances through Herbert Achayi and Nicholas Mwere.

BUL’s hopes of an upset were dashed, and KCCA’s impressive performance has seen them reclaim the top spot in the league standings.
