The coach Milutin “Micho” Sredojevic charges produced a splendid performance thrashing Tanzania’s Taifa Stars by three goals to nothing to lay a firm foundation for their Championship of African Nations dreams. The tournament is played strictly by players in local leagues will be staged in Rwanda next year.

The rout started in the 37th minute with Ssekisumba Erisa grabbing his first of the match, the SC Villa talisman put his name on the score again in the 65th before Farouk Miya closing scoring from the spot in the 85th minute.

The match was played at the Amaan Stadium in Zanzibar on Saturday 20th June 2015.

The win is coach “Micho’s” second in less than two weeks as he continues to churn out impressive results since renewing his contract with the Cranes. Uganda beat Botswana 2-0 in the AFCON 2017 qualifier match last weekend.
