Male Musa and Nicholas Ddungu were the players on target for Makerere while Geoffrey Gagganga scored for UCU.

It remains an open contest to both teams as they vie to go all the way and claim the Pepsi University Football League trophy.

Makerere were the winners of the inaugural tournament in 2012 and that remains their only UFL title to date.

On the other hand, UCU's only UFL triumph came in 2019 when they defeated St. Lawrence University in the final.
