Tournament Update 2 - White Eagle's Dappers of Devastation: 6 Red Hottage Seniors: 0

Match Report: The Line up for the Dappers is quite different from last year as they are plagued with injuries and lingering malaria. Thanks to a change in rules for the senior competition from an age limit to a weight and height index limit the veteran Crow comes into the mix to start on the right wing. Also Fred has recruited some of his friends on loan from Masaka Secondary School including the legendary Blick, Walu and Javira.

The match begins with some beautiful 2 touch football from the Dappers leaving the Red Hottage team chasing shadows. A Red Hottage defender is put under pressure and passes the ball back to his keeper who picks the ball up without thinking. Back Pass. Lubyayi Steps up to blast the ball into the net and after just 10 minutes it's 1-0.

The 2nd is not long in coming as the ball is passed from wing to wing culminating in a well weighted ball through to Javira who slots home number 2.

Red Hottage try to settle and get a hold on the game but the Dappers passing is in a class of its own. Just before half time another slick move sees Walu push up from left back to place the ball neatly into the corner. 3-0.

The second half begins and the Dappers are enjoying their football. Sensing the chance of a rout they coninue to push forward and Crow skins 2 players on the right before slotting the ball to Lubyayi who crosses for Blick to blast home. The crowd goes wild. 4-0.

Walu then gets his second of the game on 49 minutes with a mazy run, who could believe he's a defender! The Dappers are really teaching Red Hottage a footballing lesson! Finally with 8 minutes remaining Blick once again finishes off a series of incisive passes with a tap in. The score is 6-0, the rout is complete and here endeth the lesson!
