اوگاندا مقابل کنگو دموکراتیک

Uganda needed a stirring late goal from James Bogere to salvage a 1-1 draw with D.R. Congo in Johannesburg on Monday, avoiding a first defeat of the window after dominating their first meeting three days earlier. The game stayed level at 0-0 at the break, though Arnold Vula wasted a good chance for Uganda in the 49th minute. D.R. Congo struck first when Nathanael Mbuku intercepted a loose pass and drilled a low finish past Kingdom Osayi in the 69th minute. Uganda hit back in the 89th minute as substitute Denis Omedi set up Bogere, who fired past Bertaud Dimitry for the equalizer. The draw rounded off a useful double-header for both sides. Uganda, who won the first leg 2-0, handed senior debuts to five players as coach Paul Put widened his pool, while D.R. Congo can take heart from fighting back on the road.
