KCCA FC are through to the Stanbic Uganda Cup Round of 32 as their quest for a maiden silverware in four years and an eleventh title continues.
This is after the Startimes Uganda Premier League leaders defeated nine-man KJT 3-0 at the Coffee Grounds in Bugolobi Monday evening.
The visitors were largely comfortable against the Regional League side and took the lead when Rogers Mato connected with a miscued Allan Okello shot early in the first half.
Charles Lwanga had threatened from the on-set, running at the hosts’ defence before firing over the bar.
But even with lots of possession, KCCA could not add to their tally and took a slim 1-0 lead into the halftime break.
The second half started with centre back Geoffrey Wasswa getting marching orders from the referee.
KCCA responded by getting their second goal, Mato causing all sorts of problems on the left side of the visitors' attack to put it on the plate for Lwanga.
Things moved from bad to worse for KJT when goalkeeper Erick Ssali was sent off for handling the ball outside the box.
The punishment was much harsher for Douglas Ddungu’s troops as substitute Moses Waiswa found the back of the net from the resultant free kick.
Defender Najib Muwonge was also sent off after receiving a second yellow for bringing down Tshisungu Kankonde.
Morley Byekwaso and his charges will now wait to learn their opponent for the next round.
