Loki was unmatched with two quick goals to complete his hat trick with five minutes to the break.

South Sudanese international Emmanuel Loki produced arguably the best performance in the Stanbic Uganda cup as Soltilo Bright Stars put eight unanswered goals past Nakapelimen in Morot.

Ibrahim Kasinde fired the Asaph Mwebaze coaches side ahead after 20 minutes of asking before Loki opened his account in the 35th minute.

Loki was unmatched with two quick goals to complete his hat trick with five minutes to the break.

Kaka Umony also got onto the scoresheet when he curled in a freekick from range to give the Stars a 5-0 lead into the breather.

Kasinde sealed his brace deep in the second half as Sam Ssenyonjo grabbed a brace of his own.

Elsewhere, substitute Emmanuel Okech scored within three minutes of his introduction to give Onduparaka a derby win over their fellow West Nile side Pakwach Youngsters.

Former topflight side Paidha Blacks Angels gave their fans something to smile about after knocking out Kyetume 5-4 through post-match penalty mark kicks that followed a goalless draw in normal time.

Veteran Henry Kitegenyi borrowed his scoring form in the FUFA Big League to send Mbarara City to the round of 32 after overcoming SC Tawai in Dokolo.
