VILLA’S GOAL FEST: Wakiso Giants on the receiving end of a thorough beating
Danito NSUBUGA
Steven Bengo and his Wakiso Giants side have this evening been handed their heaviest defeat of the season so far.
They have now gone six games minus tasting victory, their last victory coming in September against Mbale Heroes.
Villa have made Wankulukuku a fortress having scored 19 goals while playing at home, they also walloped UPDF FC 5-0 at the same venue.
The onslaught started early with Charles Lukwago scoring in the 14th minute, followed by a Patrick Jonah Kakande worldie.
The diminutive forward picked up the ball in the center of the fieldset and beat close to 5 Wakiso Giants players and fired home a thunderbolt that the goalkeeper only managed to admire.
2-0 up is the how the game went into the half time break with the home side in cruise control.
On resumption, substitute Hakim Kiwanuka wasted no time to extend Villa’s lead when he was through on goal and rounded the goalkeeper to finish in an empty net in the 52nd minute. Moments later, Charles Lwanga completed his brace to quash any possibilities of a potential comeback after Marvin Oshaba had pulled one back for Wakiso from the penalty spot.
Reagan Mpande “The mixer” did the mixing with an exquisite finish in the 77th minute to make it 5 for Villa and captain David Owori completed the whitewash with another long range effort.
Villa move up the log to 4th place with 14 points, six behind leaders Vipers . Wakiso Giants are left languishing in 13th place with only 9 points from 9 games.
Next in line for Villa is a short trip to Lugogo against NEC and Wakiso Giants will host URA on November 27th 2024.
