On Friday, July 19, 2019, Kampala City Capital Authority (KCCA) stormed into the final of the Cecafa Kagame Cup in Rwanda after a 4-3 win over Zambia's Green Eagles in a seven-goal thrilling semi-final match at the Stade de Kigali.

The Ugandan champions will face either Azam from Tanzania or DR Congo's AS Maniema in Sunday's finale, a game that Rwanda President Paul Kagame is expected to attend.

Teenage sensation Allan Okello ran the show, scoring twice and assisting another as the Ugandan team, coached by Mike Mutebi, dominated the match.

Okello's first goal came just two minutes into the game, and he went on to score his second goal just before fulltime.

However, the match was not without its twists and turns, with Green Eagles equalizing twice before KCCA eventually emerged victorious in extra time.
