Uganda Cranes defender Aziz Kayondo scored his first goal for his new side Real Monarchs FC.

Real Monarchs is a professional soccer club playing in the MLS Next Pro, a third division league of American soccer.

The team is owned by, and operates as the reserve team of, the Major League Soccer club Real Salt Lake.

Kayondo bundled in the equaliser in the second half before Real Monarchs managed to overcome San Jose Earthquakes II in shootouts.

Kayondo scored from close range after receiving a neat back-heel assist from Pendro Fonseca in the 65th minute.

It’s the first goal for Kayondo in 15 games and he will be hoping that it’s the first of many to come.

It was a good come back for Real Monarchs who trailed 2-0 before halftime, and went on to win 4-3 in penalty shootouts at Negoesco Stadium.
