FUFA Women Elite League
Kataka SHE 0-1 Rines SS WFC
Rines SS WFC became the first team to secure qualification out of Group B of the 2020/21 FUFA Women Elite League after overcoming Kataka SHE on Tuesday.
Skipper Shakira Nalule converted a penalty in the first half and this eventually turned out to be decisive moment of the game.
Nalule tucked home from 18 yards after Kataka SHE defender Catherine Namataka fouled Betty Nakubulwa inside the box.
Kataka SHE looked a shadow of themselves from their previous game (against Town View SS) and failed to replicate their performance.
Rines SS on the other hand knew what they wanted and did just enough to hold on and secure maximum points.
They will now face Dynamic SS Jjeza in the quarterfinals. The Mukono based side finished second in Group A with 4 points.
Rines SS coach Bright Nyanzi says they have achieved the first target but hopes to make improvements prior to the knockout stages.
“I’m happy that we have jumped the first hurdle but we now have to improve before the knockout games because it will require us to double our efforts.” He said.
