The Uganda U20 men’s football national team, the Hippos were on Sunday eliminated from the 2019 CECAFA U20 championships after losing 4-2 to Tanzania.

In the game played at Pece Stadium in Gulu, Tanzanian strikers Albart Simchimba and Pius Kelvin each struck twice to eliminate Uganda.

The Hippos goals were scored by Vipers SC left-back Aziz Kayondo on a slippery surface at the Pece Stadium in Gulu.

Uganda started strongly trying to break the dead-lock.

Inside the opening 15 minutes, Ivan Asaba shot wide before namesake Bogeere curled a free-kick over.

However, it was Tanzania who opened the scoring as Simchimba headed past Jack Komakech in the Hippos goal.

Morley Byekwaso’s side search for a response before halftime but it would not come as Tanzania went into the break leading 1-0.

Kayondo eventually levelled matter two minutes after the restart with a wonderful strike from distance.

However, Simchimba restored Tanzania’s advantage thanks to another headed effort.

Like he had done earlier, Kayondo once again drew Uganda level from similar fashion as the first.

The Belgium based striker scored two goals in quick succession to hand Tanzania victory.
