KCCA FC, under new tactician Sergio Traguil, started the UPL season with a disappointing 1-0 loss to BUL FC before falling 2-1 to Maroons and Express in front of their own fans at Lugogo.
Newly appointed KCCA FC chairman Andrew Sserunjogi Mukiibi is confident the club will rise from a poor start in the Startimes Uganda Premier League to challenge for the title.
The Kasasiro Boys have lost three games to start the campaign and are now languishing in the relegation zone with no points and a goal difference of -3.
While meeting the club staff and players at the MTN Omondi Stadium on Tuesday, Sserunjogi revealed that the team is in a ‘marathon’ and can expect success in the end.

“We are building our thing,” he said while addressing the team.

The 3-1 loss to Abu Salem in Tunisia turned out to be the difference as the 13-time league champions crashed out of the preliminaries.
“Many of you have seen these long-distance runners, do they begin at the front?” Sserunjogi asked.
