Mbarara City and KCCA FC played out to a goalless stalemate on Wednesday at Kakyeka Stadium.
The hosts created numerous scoring opportunities in the first period of the game but Henry Kitegenyi and Solomon Okwalinga failed to capitalize on their chances.
The visitors came into the game with a poor record at Kakyeka with no win in their previous three attempts, Morley Byekwaso’s side were horrible on the day.
