The wait is finally over for Gomba Lions FC supporters as the five time Buganda Masaza Cup champions return to action this weekend to kick off the 2026 Masaza cup second round campaign against Busiro.
The highly anticipated encounter will be played at Kabulasoke PTC Playground, where thousands of football fans are expected to gather and cheer on one of the tournament's most successful counties.
After an impressive first round performance, Gomba will be aiming to continue their fine form as they pursue a record extending sixth Masaza Cup title. The Lions have built a reputation as the kings of the competition, having won the championship five times since the tournament was introduced in 2004, more than any other county.
With the knockout race becoming increasingly competitive, Gomba know that a positive start to the second round could strengthen their position in the standings and move them a step closer to another championship.
Their opponents, Busiro, will arrive at Kabulasoke with ambitions of spoiling the party. The former Masaza Cup champions have the quality and experience to challenge any side in the competition and will be determined to upset the hosts on their own turf.
The match promises to be a fascinating contest between two counties with rich football traditions. Gomba will look to dominate possession and use the energy of their home supporters, while Busiro will be hoping to remain disciplined and capitalise on any opportunities that come their way.
Supporters are expected to create an electric atmosphere at Kabulasoke, with traditional drumming, singing, and dancing adding colour to another exciting chapter of the 2026 Buganda Masaza Cup.
For Gomba, the message is clear the journey towards a sixth Masaza Cup crown begins now. The players will be counting on the unwavering support of the Gomba faithful as they take to the field in search of another crucial three points.
All roads will lead to PTC Kabulasoke as Gomba Lions FC begin the second round of the 2026 Masaza Cup with a blockbuster clash against Busiro, in a match that could set the tone for the remainder of their title pursuit.
