Uganda v Burundi
Uganda (4) v Burundi (9)
Two extremely potent, African sides clashed in one of the games to watch. The young Burundi side did everything to keep the Uganda keeper busy and with great effect: the shots were firing in from every possible and impossible angle and, quite frankly, he did exceptionally well to only let 9 of them in. Tough, but fair tackles were bursting out everywhere and several players had to go kiss the ground. The spirits were high, though, and a very competitive and dedicated affair ended in a 9-4 victory to Burundi, who'll see themselves through to the third round, whilst Uganda showed the world what thery're up to next time around.
