KCCA FC, on four occasions needed Allan Okello and Rogers Mato’s second half brilliance to beat Blacks Power FC 4-1 in the Uganda Premier League.
The duo netted braces each to induce defeat to the Lira based side, while Bronson Nsubuga scored the latter’s consolation in a game played on Saturday at Philip Omondi Stadium, Lugogo.
KCCA were a no show in the opening half with their only chance coming from Simon Tshisungu Kankonde‘s 44th minute shot which was dealt with by goalkeeper Tonny Kyamera.
In the second, Mato finished off a swift one-two with Okello to pass the ball past Kyamera for their first of the evening.
Six minutes later, Okello received a layoff from Mato on the edge of the box to strike with his right to the bottom left corner for the second.
Okello completed his brace in the 69th minute through a well struck penalty after Mato was fouled in the box by Emmanuel Odur.
Nsubuga then reduced the deficit through a well placed header after great vision from Michael Siwu.
Mato added the fourth and his second in the 90th minute with a powerfully struck effort past Kyamera into the top right corner.
