He also blames the individual errors that led to the goals;

“We gifted them four out of the five goals. The goals were brought about by individual mistakes but that is football, it can happen sometimes.

Improvement

The coach was speaking after another lacklustre performance that saw his team depend on spot kicks to beat Jinja North in the Uganda Cup.

“It was very difficult for the team to react to such a situation. I have spoken to the players about it and hope to do our best this Saturday.”
