By Norman Katende Nkima 3 Kkobe 1 TodayLugave v NdigaNKIMA earned a hard fought passport to the 27th Bika football final with victory over Kkobe in an entertaining encounter at Nakivubo stadium yesterday.Nkima defence tamed Kkobe’s dangerous duo of Nserekos (Tom and Emmanuel).When the defence failed, Express goalkeeper William Tamale came in handy.Nkima’s Robert Ssekizivu , who was man of the match, set up several chances, two of which were well taken by Jimmy Ssewankambo whose double made the half-time score 2-0.Kkobe came back strong in the second half and over loaded Nkima’s defence.The pressure paid off when Nsereko’s cross was headed home by Abbas Musuza. But Nkima restored their cushion through a Abbey Mugerwa penalty.The replay of the second final continues with Lugave playing Ndiga.
