The spot-kick could have given the 'Kasasiro Boys' an early lead, but goalkeeper Denis Otim had different ideas, as he expertly thwarted it.
KCCA FC attacking midfielder Moses Waiswa missed a crunch penalty as KCCA FC suffered a 2-1 defeat to URA FC in the FUFA Super 8 semi-final on Friday.
The spot-kick could have given the 'Kasasiro Boys' an early lead, but goalkeeper Denis Otim had different ideas, as he expertly thwarted it.
And, while a section of fans turned on their star player, head coach Sergio Traguil refused to begrudge Waiswa.
"No, no, I can never blame Moses (Waiswa) for missing the penalty because even though he failed, he tried," the Portuguese said moments after the game.
The Tax Collectors would assume the lead through the freshly signed star marksman Ivan Ahimbisibwe.
"So, if I can blame Moses (Waiswa) for missing that penalty, then I have to blame everyone that missed a goal."
"Shaban (Muhammad) missed a one-against-one with the goalkeeper and another chance, so you can't blame one person."
And, despite a quick KCCA equalizer courtesy of Filbert Obenchan, the guests struck late through Laban Tibita to take the day.
The thirteen-time Uganda Premier League champions will try to salvage a third-place finish in the tournament against SC Villa.
