INSPIRED by Ibrahim Sekagya’s outstanding presence at the back, Austrian Champions Red Bulls Salzburg managed to preserve their unbeaten record the Uefa Europa League and seal their fourth in a row after a 1-0 win over Bulgarian side Levski Sofia.

On a dramatic night of European football, Salzburg needed their top guns to rise to the occasion and Sekagya, just as the rest of his teammates did not disappoint.

The Uganda Cranes captain held the Salzburg defence tight before being involved in Scheimer’s late strike.

Sekagya also had an impressive success rate in contested balls and outstanding challenges in defence.

Salzburg need just a point to progress to the knock-out stage.
