Vipers SC Ahmed Amayo was left on cloud nine after playing his first match for the club in the Uganda Premier League.
The teenage defender was named in the Venoms’ starting XI against Mbarara City by coach Fred Kajoba on Tuesday. This was his first appearance on the pitch for the Venoms despite making the bench four times during Kajoba’s predecessor, Edward Golola's reign.
“I was so happy when the coach gave me an opportunity to play. I’ve been hopeful and patiently praying for this time to come. It was a fantastic feeling for me.
