The spirits of the losing team were, however, not dampened by the defeat with both Head Coach, Francis Omoduko and Team manager, Timothy Wabwire insisting that the match was a welcome opportunity for them to gauge the ability of their side.

-The match was quite tough but we braved the numerous Spider attacks with desirable vigour, Coach Omoduko told Futaa.com.

-From the match, our players showed that they are the material that can reach district level with a little bit more training, Wabwire rejoined.
