Katende opened the scoring in the first half, while Walaga sealed the win with a second-half goal.

Fahad Aniku’s first-half goal was enough to give Felix Ssekabuza’s side an advantage going into the second leg.

In another closely contested match, Kyaddondo triumphed 1-0 over Busujju, with Samuel Kisozi netting the only goal of the game in the first half.

Meanwhile, Kyaggwe exacted revenge on Ssingo with a 1-0 win, courtesy of David Mugalu’s first-half strike. Ssingo had previously defeated Kyaggwe home and away during the group stages.
