Heavy rains on Thursday forced the premature abandonment of a FUFA Big League match between West Nile based Paidha Black Angels and Mbale’s Kataka at the Barokoro stadium in Zombo district.

Only 39 minutes had been played with the scores between the two clubs tied at one goal apiece.

Captain Dickens “Diarra” Okwi had scored in the 20th minute to give the home side an early lead.

The joy was however short-lived as the visitors found the equalizer a few moments later.

Severe rains then took over to leave the ground flooded, hampering the easy flow of the ball.

Efforts to drain the playing surface were futile and the referee had no option than to call off play.

Continuation of the last 6 minutes in the first half as well as the last 45 minutes of the second stanza will take place on Friday morning, kicking off at 10 AM.

At the Prisons Stadium, Luzira, Water squandered their lead to fall 2-1 at home to visiting Kigezi Home Boyz.
