Kisubi was under coach Karl Baijahe Charles, as head coach Allan Kabonge was sent off in their first match to MUST in Mbarara.

While speaking on the second loss, Karl blamed the loss to immaturity of his team.

“For sure when we got a late equaliser and I thought that a point was fine since we are still building but a lot of immaturity in our players that cost us,” Karl said.

“I am going to work on that because it is something which happens for new teams.”

“When you compare how they played against MUST and how they played today, you will realize a lot of improvement. That means the league is getting more competitive.

“I thank God for today’s win, now we are on top of the group but there is still a lot to do. We have to remain focused to win our matches to come so that we can qualify for the quarterfinals.”
