By Lawrence Mubiru 

The curtain is rising on the 2026 Sekabira Cup grand finale after a dramatic third-place playoff that set the tone for an electrifying climax this Saturday, 28th, at Luweero Boys Ground.

Tukolerewamu FC secured the bronze medal in nerve-wracking fashion, defeating Maria Auto Parts FC 4-2 in a penalty shootout after a goalless stalemate in normal time.

In a tightly contested encounter, both sides created chances but failed to find the breakthrough. With neither team able to break the deadlock, the match was decided from the spot.

Tukolerewamu FC held their nerve during the shootout, converting four of their penalties to seal a hard-earned third-place finish.

The result marks a significant turnaround for Tukolerewamu FC, who were eliminated at the group stages last season. Their bronze medal this year highlights the team’s resilience, tactical growth, and determination throughout the campaign.

With the third-place battle settled, attention now shifts to the grand finale.

Team Guiness will lock horns with Bravious FC on Saturday, 28th, in what promises to be a fiercely contested encounter. Both sides have impressed on their journey to the final, showcasing real football and championship ambition.

As anticipation builds among fans, the question remains: who will lift the 2026 Sekabira Cup trophy? The stage is set. The finalists are ready. On Saturday, a new champion will be crowned.
