Mucureezi's debut goal helps Vipers SC re-open four-point lead

Paul Mucureezi scored on his debut for Vipers SC against Kyetume at St Mary’s Stadium in Kitende in a Ugandan Premier League (UPL) Friday tie.

Mucuurezi, who signed for the Venoms from Mbarara City, scored the only goal of the tie in the ninth minute after receiving Tito Okello's pass.

The goal was vital for the midfielder who rejoined his former coach Edward Golola at Vipers and helped the club keep their place at the summit of the UPL table. They have 39 points after their 16th match of the season.
