The result marked the first away victory for head coach David Obua since his appointment in November last year.

The tactician credited his team's resilience and teamwork, asserting that it will be key if he's to build a strong unit at URA.

"You saw boys who were working and put in a collective effort. The individuals are working so hard to make it a collective effort," Obua told the press after the game.

"The process takes us to that. We can win away from home and at home. The boys work so hard, and those are the results, not luck."

"What I saw is a collective effort," reiterated before adding: "The team is built on that. Everyone is happy, including the players on the bench, and with that, you can win anything."

Following the victory, URA now sit seventh with 24 points in 16 games and will host UPDF FC in their next game on Tuesday.

On the other hand, Gaddafi, who are 13th with 16 points, will visit Vipers SC at the St Mary's Stadium, Kitende on Thursday.
