Defending champions Makerere University Business School (MUBS) came away from Gulu with a point following a 2-2 draw with Gulu University in Nile Special University Football League Group B match played on Friday 10th April.
The result leaves MUBS in joint second position in the Group together with Ndejje University and Gulu University with Uganda Christian University and Busitema University yet to play their game which is scheduled for this Sunday 12th April.
Nyero Joseph put the hosts ahead in the 11th minute of the game in a first half that saw Gulu dominate a subdued MUBS who were lucky to go into the break only a goal down.
A stern half time talk by MUBS coach, Charles Ayiekoh however seemed to do the trick with Wasswa Derrick putting the visitors level one minute after the game resumed and Peter Otai putting them ahead in the 56th minute.
Gulu however were keen on maintaining their home record against MUBS and pressed the MUBS goal and were eventually rewarded for their persistence when an unmarked Ochwo Constantine headed the ball past MUBS goalkeeper Masaba Ramathan in the 74th minute.
Both sides kept on pressing each other till the last whistle but when the game ended they had to share the points.
