Cecafa Kagame Cup 2019: Green Eagles lost to a well-oiled KCCA – Aggrey Chiyangi

Green Eagles coach Aggrey Chiyangi admitted his side suffered defeat to a better team on Friday.

The Zambian side, who were taking part in the Cecafa Cup as a guest team, put up a brave fight but finally bowed out of the competition at the semi-final stage after losing 4-3 to Kampala Capital City Authority of Uganda.

The match was decided in extra-time after a brace each from KCCA striker Allan Okello and Eagles midfielder Amity Shamende inside the 90 minutes left the two sides deadlocked after full-time at Stade de Kigali.
