She Maroons coach Simon Peter Ocuka was effusive in his praise for forward Lillian Kasuubo after she plundered a hattrick as the new FUFA Women Super League season got underway.

Kasuubo’s haul saw She Maroons thrash Asubo Gafford Ladies 5-0 at Kampala Quality ground in Kisaasi.

Substitute Millicent Namwembe added a brace.

"Lillian has also started on a good note and substitute Millicent has also scored two which is a boost to the team. The camp generally is in a good mood. Everybody is ready for the task ahead," noted Ocuka.

Ocuka then urged his players to maintain a winning touch.

"We need to keep performing like this even in our next games. I know this is a league but I believe my players have the potential to perform well," he added.

Elsewhere, Shamirah Nalugya scored a controversial penalty before Cathrine Nagadya added the other against her former side as Kampala Queens came from a goal down to beat Uganda Martyrs at MTN Omondi Stadium in Lugogo.

Latifah Nakasi scored Uganda Martyrs’ consolation goal Martyrs.

At Kitende, another new entrant, Wakiso Hill, went down 1-0 to Makerere, while Rines went down 2-3 to Kawempe Muslim.
