History is beckoning for Ugandan football in case the junior side - the Hippos - prevails past Ghana in tonight’s final to win the U20 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) in Mauritania.
The success will go a long way in unlocking doors for the game for Uganda in several ways, some of which are not even thought of.
What would it mean for the Hippos to win Afcon?
First, defeating the Black Satellites will earn Uganda’s its first major piece of soccer silverware in history.
And whereas football is quite popular in Uganda, it is still odd, to a great extent, that other disciplines like rugby, netball, cricket, woodball among others have already tasted significant continental success.
