- Kyetume 2-3 Express

- Police 0-0 KCCA
The top of the table clash between leaders Uganda Revenue Authority (URA) and Vipers at the St Mary’s Stadium, Kitende ended all square, with a tie (1-all) on Wednesday, 12 May 2021.
URA took the first half lead through Cromwell Rwothomio before a late-late equalizer from Yunus Sentamu salvaged a point for the hosts.
Rwothomio’s goal arrived in the opening half three minutes after the half hour mark.
BOBOSI BYARUHANGA (RIGHT) FIGHTS FOR THE BALL
The former Paidha Black Angels’ forward beat defender Livingstone Mulondo and shot past Burundian goalkeeper Fabien Mutombora at the near post.
This followed a cleverly executed explict backheel from skipper Shafiq Kagimu.
With minutes trickling away, Sentamu struck late to deny URA the maximum points at Kitende.
The forward volleyed home past goalkeeper Hannington Ssebwalunyo after a well brushed ball from Congolese born forward Ceaser Manzoki. 
URA PLAYERS CELEBRATE GOAL
A point shared meant that URA maintained their one point on the summit as the tax collectors have now fetched 51 points off 23 matches, one better than Vipers who hit the half century mark.
Express, 3-2 winners on the same day at Kyetume closed gap to 49 points.
Kitara held visiting BUL to a 2-all draw at the Masindi Municipal Stadium.
