Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>Wakiso Giants head coach Alex Gitta was left irate after his team lost concentration to concede a last-minute goal as they lost 1-0 to Gaddafi in Jinja yesterday.<\/p>\n

Returning goalkeeper Samson Kirya who was a top contender for man of the match before the 91st minute, rushed out of his goal and failed to communicate to his defenders leaving Yunus Sibira to head in unmarked.<\/p>\n

Amos Kirya had initiated a promising quick counterattack on his left wing before Edward Saturo hacked him for the foul.<\/p>\n

Hassan Musana took the responsibility and floated in a tricky delivery which eluded the Purple Sharks defenders and an advancing Kirya in the crowded box before finding Sibira who glanced it in.<\/p>\n

“We played well for a better part of the game without conceding but due to a childish error, we ended up losing the three points,” Wakido coach Alex Gitta fumed after the game.<\/p>\n

Gaddafi lost Faisal Muwawu in the 24th minute after a dangerous challenge by Kirya that saw him stretchered out.<\/p>\n

The result lifted the Soldier Boys two slots up to eighth with 19 points as Wakiso Giants, missed the chance to leapfrog Bul into fourth place going into the mid-season break.<\/p>\n

“The game was too tense with a lot of action in the midfield but we won the battle and eventually won the game. It feels good for me when I am named best player of the match for two consecutive games because it shows I am improving and doing what the coaches want us to,” said Sibira.<\/p>\n

He has been key for Gaddafi and was named man of the match for consecutive games.<\/p>\n

In Wankulukuku, champions Express drew 1-all with visiting Solitilo Bright Stars to stay third on 27 points, four behind leaders Kcca. The latter have played two games less.<\/p>\n
