Eric Kambale netted from the spot as Express FC beat UPDF FC 1-0 at Wankulukuku Stadium on Saturday evening.

The inform striker calmly struck from 12 yards after Godfrey Lwesibawa was brought down by defender Bernard Muwanga in the the forbidden area in the 20th minute.

Brian Kayanja nearly leveled matters for the visitors at the stroke of halftime but his low effort hit the post.

Davis Kasirye who replaced Charles Ssebutinde in the second period also had a decent chance to equalise for UPDF but his effort went inches over the bar.
