In the second stanza, Nakasi doubled her side’s lead with three minutes past the hour mark. However, Nabbosa pulled on back for the hosts five minutes later, a goal that could only prove to be a consolation at the end of the day.
Later on in the 90th minute, Nagadya put the icing on the cake with the third to ensure that her side walked with all the three important points.
Victory ensured that Uganda Martyrs returned to winning ways and they now move to three points in the fourth place.
