KCCA FC coach Mike Mutebi has said his team will fight up to the last man standing when they play their return leg match against Congo’s AS Otoho a week’s time.

The Ugandan representatives were beaten three nil by the Congolese side in the Caf Confederation Cup qualifying game on Sunday but according to Mutebi, it is not over until it is over.

“It is not over. They were just effective in the final third and were not but were never outplayed at all,”Mutebi said shortly after the game.

Two goals in a space of two minutes for the hosts thanks to Yedan Moussa in the 20th and 22nd minute marks and a late strike by Kikasa Wamba were enough for Otoho to trample over KCCA FC.
