Uganda Cranes staged a gallant display as they rallied from a goal down to draw one all with Ethiopia in a group B match of the 2017 CECAFA Senior Challenge Cup tournament at the Bukhungu stadium, Kakamega on Sunday.
Derrick Nsibambi scored in the 85th minute to cancel out Abdel Abubeker’s 22nd minute opener.
Uganda however ended the game with 9 men after left back Isaac Muleme and central defender Timothy Awanyi were sent off in the closing stages of the match.
The tournament defending champions thus qualify out of group B alongside Burundi to the semi finals.
Uganda is the record winners of the CECAFA Senior Challenge Cup with 14 titles.
