Tournament Update 3 - White Eagle's Dappers of Devastation: 6 Ssenyange Seniors: 1

Match Report: After an emphatic win against Red Hottage the Dappers are in high spirits as they take the field. However they expect a tougher test against the burly Ssenyange team.

Lubyayi is cut down on the left. He swings the ball into the back post where it is met by the firm head of Fred who sees the ball rocket into the top corner for 1-0 and his first goal of the tournament.

Again the Dappers passing and movement is a wonder to behold, a move up the left is finished of by Javira and after just 11 minutes the Dappers are 2-0 up!

on 20 minutes Ssenyange is cut in half by a perfect ball from Blick. Yassin collects it having beaten the offside trap, rounds the keeper and slots home to take it to 3-0.

As the second half begins it's clear that Ssenyange are getting more frustrated, every time they get the ball their attack breaks down thanks to the solid defensive work of the Dappers back line. As Ssenyange push forward they are caught on the break and Yassin gets his second of the game with another good strike. 4-0.

Frutration has turned to anger and Ssenyange tempers are hot. As Crow dances past 2 players a third comes storming in to cut him down from behind. The crowd are insensed and a cheer goes up as the ref brandishes the yellow card. However, after a further 2 bad challenges in as many minutes and with Ssenyange supporters chanting "we want to see the colour of his blood" Crow wisely removes himself from the action.

Mid way through the second half and Ssenyange finally have something to cheer about. A dubious penalty decision is given for a handball that never existed. They score to bring it back to 4-1 but the Dappers aren't worried.

Rightly so as 2 minutes later Roy, on for Crow, sprints up the wing gathers a ball from midfield to leave a defender floundering. He smacks the ball past the static keeper into the bottom corner. 5-1.

The will of Ssenyange is broken now and there's still time for the Dappers to rub salt into the wounds which they do withot mercy. A strike from Javira gives him his second goal in the last minute.

The Dappers have scored 6 again and have qualified for the semis with a match to spare. They are rewarded later that night with extra portions of posho and beans. Blaps!!

Keep it coming rudeboy! Glad you've allowed yourself to play - as organiser, and player-manager of the favourites, you'd better get ready for some bad losers when you blaps the finals 7 nil! Is that Lubyayi the legend of the "nearly-made-it-to-the-2002-Uganda-National
U-15-squad" fame?

Hang about, if you're playing, who's filming? We want another DVD like last year's, and I'm not sure you're going to get the quality camera-work if you've given the camcorder to Tonny...
