'Police FC took blow for poor and disappointing red card error against Vipers SC' - Mubiru

Ugandan Premier League side Police FC are going to appeal against a red card given to Derrick Ochan on Friday against Premier League side Vipers Sports Club.

Ochan was sent off for allegedly handling the ball outside his area and his teammates went on to lose the game 3-2 to the reigning champions after he was replaced by Tom Ikara.

"Unfortunately, we cannot change the result because that is behind us, but we shall definitely appeal to tie authorities to rescind the red card because it was never a foul in the first place,” Police head coach Abdalla Mubiru told Football256.
