 Mustafa Kizza scored the only goal as KCCA defeated URA 1-0 to progress to the quarterfinals of the Stanbic Uganda Cup.

Left back and substitute Kizza's freekick in the 85th minute separated both sides at Mehta stadium in Lugazi.

This was the first win Lugogo side after so many games.Earlier they had not won any of their last four away games against URA before today's encounter.

The game that was stopped for more than 30 minutes due to heavy downpour also saw home side miss scoring opportunities.

For KCCA who have had worst performances in the Uganda Premier league this season ,they know that the only chance they have to win a silverware may be the Uganda Cup.

However, URA will now shift their focus to the league where their performance have been inconsistent.

Elsewhere, Police FC thrashed Soltilo Bright Stars 4-0 to eliminate them in the knockout competition.

Isaac Ogwang scored a brace before Steven Kabuye and Herman Wasswa added the other goals for Police.
