'The future is yours, write more chapters' - Uganda coach McKinstry to Hippos

Uganda coach Johnathan McKinstry has challenged the Hippos to continue writing more chapters after gracing the U20 Africa Cup of Nations where they lost 2-0 to Ghana in the final.

A brace from Daniel Afriyie was what the Black Satellites needed to defeat their opponents at the Olympic Stadium in Nouakchott on Saturday night. However, the East Africans had every reason to celebrate owing to the way they played in the biennial competition.

The supporters were also impressed including the Northern Irish coach who did not hesitate to express his feelings publicly.
