However, as they say, never count eggs before they hatch because it needed only two minutes for Steven Mukwala who is on loan from Vipers SC to score two crucial goals that ensured Maroons beat Police.

Mukwala bagged the equalizer when he headed the ball in the right corner to beat the Police goalkeeper in the 85th minute but two minutes later, he was at it again when he scored the winner in the 87th minute to seal the win for Douglas Bamweyana.

The win ensured Maroons are 6th on 16 points whereas Police remained in the drop zone with only five points.
