Cranes Through to AFCON 2019, Tanzania Waits

 

Patrick Kaddu was the hero of the night as the Uganda Cranes qualified for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations tournament on Saturday. 

It was a full house at the forty-thousand-capacity Namboole Stadium as the Cranes team edged Cape Verde 1-0 to clinch a consecutive AFCON qualification. The win pushes the Cranes to the top of Group L with 13 points.

The group is, meanwhile still wide open after Lesotho beat Tanzania 1-0 on Sunday in Maseru.
