Bul FC headcoach Alex Isabirye returned from suspension with a bang helping his team to overcome a hard fighting URA Football club in a soggy match that was played in Jinja on Tuesday afternoon.
The 1-0 victory was the first ever for the Fortune cooking oil manufacturers over the tax collectors after nine previous failed attempts.
Youngster, Militon Kalisa was responsible for the winner from the spot in the 27th minute.
Bul had earlier on initiated a series of rapid attacks that URA failed to clear off their half which Umar Mukobe pounced on and swung in one of his trademark crosses from the right.
Centre back Sam Senkoomi clumsily brushed the oncoming cross onto Hakim Magombe’s path who cut in and chipped in for Kalisa but Joseph Othieno pulled the striker down just near the match Official leading to a penalty.
Kalisa sent the ball to the top right sending Sulait Luyima the opposite way.
The match entered halftime with heavy downpour threatening to stop the game but however the match official Mr. Ocom decided to continue with the game.
Second half was a dull, muddy affair that distracted the flow of the ball.
The win raises the eastern giants to sixth place with 36 points while URA’s hopes of a title this season continue to fade away as they dropped to fourth.
