The two giants have been dominant throughout the campaign, brushing aside opponents with commanding performances to underline their title credentials.<br \/>\nKibuli SS were in ruthless form, dismantling Gold Star High School 7-0 to maintain their perfect record. Kakungulu Memorial kept pace with an equally impressive 3-1 victory over Buziga Islamic, ensuring the title race remains wide open.<br \/>\nElsewhere, Buziga Islamic bounced back to edge St. Mbuga Vocational 2-1, while St. Peter\u2019s Nsambya delivered one of the standout results of the tournament with an emphatic 8-0 thrashing of Gold Star High School. However, St. Mbuga had earlier secured a narrow 2-1 win over St. Peter\u2019s, highlighting the unpredictable nature of the competition.<br \/>\nThe much-anticipated clash between Kibuli SS and Kakungulu Memorial, billed as a decider between the zone\u2019s two powerhouses, failed to take place due to eligibility concerns surrounding some Kakungulu Memorial players. Tournament organizers are expected to convene and determine the outcome of the fixture before the final day.<br \/>\nWith everything still to play for, Monday promises high drama as all remaining matches will be played simultaneously at 2pm. The spotlight will firmly be on Kibuli SS and Kakungulu Memorial, whose rivalry has defined the tournament and whose final positions could ultimately hinge on the committee\u2019s verdict as much as the action on the pitch.<\/p>\n\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/voiceofbugerere.com\/usssa-qualifiers-kibuli-ss-kakungulu-memorial-neck-and-neck-ahead-of-makindye-final-day\/?utm_source=rss&#038;utm_medium=rss&#038;utm_campaign=usssa-qualifiers-kibuli-ss-kakungulu-memorial-neck-and-neck-ahead-of-makindye-final-day\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#13; Last updated Mar 27, 2026&#13; By Kayiira Jackson\u00a0 Kibuli Secondary School and Kakungulu Memorial remain locked in a fierce battle for supremacy at the top of the Makindye Zone qualifiers standings, setting up a thrilling finale heading into the last round of fixtures on Monday.
