This was the first game of the double header for match day two at the Pece War Memorial Stadium in Gulu.
Anwar Ntege, a forward at Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) scored the opener past Wakiso Giants’ goalkeeper Derrick Emukule for Tooro barely 10 minutes into the well contested physical contest.
The joy was however short lived when Nsimbe found the equalizer on the quarter hour mark.
The MYDA forward in the FUFA Big league beat goalkeeper Douglas Kisembo from close range for the equalizing goal.
Tooro was unfortunate to find the equalizer when winger Joseph Ssemujju was denied by the lower bottom post in the 21st minute from an acute angle on the left.
Bukedi team captain, Gwoto who plays at Uganda Premier League side BUL in Jinja then gave Bukedi the lead in the 36th minute.
