In a stunning turn of events at the ongoing secondary schools football tournament, defending champions Arua Public SS suffered their second consecutive defeat, falling 0-1 to a determined Nyapea side. The lone goal, scored in the second half, sent shockwaves through the crowd and further dented Arua Public’s hopes of advancing.
Nyapea, showing grit and organization, capitalized on a defensive lapse to slot in the winner, leaving the Arua City champions with mounting pressure and little room for error moving forward.
Meanwhile, in an electrifying evening clash, Nile High Odia snatched a last-minute equalizer against Comboni SS to secure a 1-1 draw. The dramatic goal in extra time kept Nile High’s dreams alive and left Comboni SS ruing missed chances to seal the game.
With the group stages drawing to a close, all eyes now turn to Apesco SS, whose chances of progressing hang precariously in the balance. One more upset could see them bow out early, much to the shock of their loyal fans.
The tournament remains wide open — and the drama is far from over.
