Kawempe Muslim will loathe a host of chances they failed to put away as they exited this year’s FUFA Women Cup at the hands of She Corporate in a 5-3 penalty shoot out at the Valley ground.
Juliet Nalukenge was the chief culprit as she squandered a glorious chance to break the tie, failing to convert from the spot few minutes to normal time sending the game into a goalless draw with spot kicks left to decide the fate.
In the shoot out, Kawempe’s Sharon Naddunga and Asia Nakibuuka missed their kicks whereas She Corporate flawlessly converted all their 5 spots to bury Kawempe’s double chasing hopes.
