The quest for the 2025 Masaza Cup intensified this Sunday as the quarter-finals kicked off with a display of pure passion and nail-biting drama. The first leg has set the stage for a thrilling return, with no team yet securing a safe passage to the semi-finals.
The day’s most decisive result came from the Kyaggwe Ssaza grounds, where the hosts delivered a commanding 2-0 victory over Ssese, putting one foot firmly in the next round. Meanwhile, Bugerere and Buluuli treated fans to a spectacular fight, with Bugerere emerging 2-1 victors. The heroics of Man of the Match Mike Katumwa, who opened the scoring, and a crucial goal from Osman Mayanja sealed the hard-fought win.
In a tense encounter, Buweekula snatched a 1-0 victory against Busujju with an edge-of-the-seat finish, while Mawokota and Ssingo battled to a gritty 0-0 stalemate, leaving that tie perfectly poised.
