00:00.
00:04As an interim replacement for the first two games of qualification.
00:09Obviously is doing a pretty good job with those draws.
00:11On way to Libya and Tunisia,
00:12and has been handed the job now on a permanent basis.
00:16Botswana, the bottom seeds in this group, by the way,
00:21gonna stretch the game down the right.
00:22There's a good deep cross into the area,
00:24headed away by Villafi.
00:28This will be a Ugandan throw on this.
00:33Moving the ball well nicely through midfield.
00:36That's a good ball through for Oribonye.
00:38Oribonye didn't really have much support.
00:42It was a little slow catching up with Botswana number 11,
00:44but that's an early warning shot for Uganda.
00:49Oribonye just holding his run long off the first touch,
00:53just a little bit heavy.
00:58Oh, cleared lock.
01:02Oribonye being rather manhandled there by Velafi.
01:12Grab of the shirt, the oldest part of this game.
01:17Oribonye plays the ball through the cutback.
01:22Loose ball, picked up again, the ball comes in.
01:24And a brilliant save from the goalkeeper.
01:27Deflecting off a defender on its way through.
01:30And a brilliant adjustment from Falkirk.
01:35It was Bouguere, who's played through here.
01:38The cross cut out, but he first onto the loose ball cut inside,
01:43curled a shot in there.
01:44I'm not sure, actually, it may be Vula who got the last touch on its way to the goalkeeper.
01:50And another look here.
01:52Defender slipping, that didn't help his cause.
01:55Out of the back, now the long ball.
01:59Searching for the runner in the left-hand channel.
02:01And the defenders completely misjudged the bounce here.
02:03And it's a brilliant opportunity.
02:04And there's the opener for James Bouguere.
02:06A big defensive mistake from Botswana.
02:09And it's Uganda who've opened the scoring.
02:12And we've come so close just moments before.
02:15And that was just too easy.
02:17The simple ball over the top.
02:20Unlocking the Botswana back line.
02:3518 years of age.
02:37James Bouguere, his first, sorry, second international goal he scored against
02:43Democratic Republic of Congo last month in a friendly
02:48It was only his fifth, sorry, sixth international appearance.
02:55He's already got two goals on his record.
02:57Simple ball over the top.
02:59Completely misjudged by Taburgo Kopalak.
03:04Missed his first touch.
03:06Bouguere seized on the opportunity.
03:09Good control.
03:10An even better finish.
03:17Despite a couple of jitters at the back from Uganda.
03:19A perfect start for the Cranes here.
03:28One through, there wasn't really anyone behind him making the run.
03:34Gosh, I don't think Botswana will be intimidated though.
03:36They've shown enough already coming forward in the opening ten minutes.
03:41This is going to be a competitive match.
03:47Bit of a tangle there.
03:49It's going to be a bit of a single move.
03:55It's going to be a bit of a single move.
03:56Here's a trip.
03:57And Rescado just on the edge of the centre circle.
04:00Caught on the calf, I think.
04:02Ticking off there.
04:05Kjeldin Berteng.
04:11A bit of the ball.
04:13Nathan Asimwe.
04:16Botswana come forwards.
04:18Good tackle, follow-up.
04:21Montero said Sile, but...
04:25I'm not sure shooting from there first time was necessarily the fight again.
04:29Nathan Asimwe.
04:30Another good ball comes in, headed away by Koppelang.
04:32This time.
04:34Good, strong header.
04:39From the central defender.
04:48He's got people to wait in the middle if he wants,
04:50but he might want to cut on to his right foot.
04:52This time he lollipops and goes to the left.
04:55Defense comes across, though, and that's a waste of good position this time.
04:58From Bulgari.
05:11Maybe he'll take it.
05:15Maybe they'll take it.
05:17In the end, it's Gilbert Who delivered the ball.
05:19But...
05:20Take it.
05:21Taken short.
05:22Plays a one-two. Drives it hit at goal.
05:25Oh, well, and Yango making the save.
05:28Maybe blocking that one now.
05:30Is this going to be the direct shot at goal?
05:32It is, but...
05:36See they're getting that one all off.
05:39High floating, always going over the crossbar.
06:11You know, he wouldn't get past in one way or another.
06:15A little grab of the shirt.
06:18Tickle on the Achilles as well.
06:22Baruti to take this one.
06:25Majority of the players all camped inside the six-yard box.
06:28It's going to be driven low and hard.
06:29No, it goes to the edge of the area.
06:30Here comes the volley.
06:32Deflection and it's in.
06:33And there's the equaliser for Okswana.
06:35And you've got to say, it had been coming.
06:39The pressure building on the Ugandan backlight.
06:42And Okswana have the goal that their play deserves finally.
06:47Nothing really on Yango could do about that.
06:50Well-worked free kick.
06:51Everyone piling into the six-yard box.
06:53He will have been unsighted.
06:57Good control on the volley as well.
06:59Easy to overhit those.
07:02And smash them into the stands behind the goal.
07:10Smiles on the Botswana bench.
07:14And there's a Lusiba.
07:15That's Kudu.
07:18Gets the goal.
07:20It's only his fifth cap.
07:22And only his second start.
07:25I'm not sure it did take a deflection.
07:27It's gone straight through the body of players somehow.
07:30As I say, and Yango wouldn't have seen a thing.
07:34With, what, 12, 14 players all that parked in front of him.
07:40Over the towering figure of Vula on that occasion.
07:43The Botswana win the ball high up the pitch.
07:45And they're coming through here at pace.
07:47The defence are too static.
07:50And Rijkaadu just losing his balance at the vital moment.
07:54Losing a little bit of composure.
07:58As he was pushed a little bit wide by the defence.
08:02The initial challenge from Al-Hassan.
08:04Probably just as well for Al-Hassan.
08:05He didn't make contact there.
08:06That would have been a second yellow.
08:09And that's a sorry sight.
08:11Dennis on Yango.
08:14He led slowly off.
08:21He also put his participation in the return fixture on Tuesday in doubt as well.
08:29So then, Kingdom of Saigi.
08:32He's in his first.
08:35And Gandon's squad.
08:36He's about to get his first international cap as well, the 22-year-old.
08:44He has some big shoes to fill here.
09:06That's a nice little layoff.
09:09And a good avoidance of the tackle there from Berteng as he spreads the ball out to a Simway on
09:13that right-hand side.
09:14He's got support coming outside him.
09:16Simway goes for the cross.
09:18And Al-Hassan has ever so well.
09:23The judge, that header, now to play on the far side.
09:30As a yellow card is up waved at someone in the Botswana team.
09:34Not sure who.
09:36But it's time to go and the ball given away cheaply.
09:39Laura Bonnier with the shot.
09:41And that was a good save from the site.
09:47Ball given away.
09:48Botswana turning defence into attack in a flash.
09:51Laura Bonnier getting the ball just outside the area.
09:55Only one thing on his mind.
09:56He's driven that.
09:57That's going on target as well.
09:58Oh, and it's a solid save.
10:01Get a really good angle on it here.
10:05That was definitely going in the top court.
10:07Simway gets the cross in but cleared.
10:11Moddingwane and the referee.
10:14Besides, that's enough time added on at the end of the first half.
10:18And there's been plenty of action.
10:22As I think...
10:26And there's a final reason for the first half.
10:28Some arguing there with...
10:34Made that we're aware of.
10:36Botswana going straight for territory there.
10:39He's banging the ball out of play on this near side.
10:42And there's been an opportunity here opening up for Botswana.
11:11And...
11:12Well, well.
11:14Well, in effect, up from left back.
11:17Just couldn't quite get the bouncing ball under control.
11:19Very close, though, to getting a telling touch in behind the backlight.
11:24Another ball whipped in.
11:29That's a nice bit of control there.
11:33An opportunity, but the flag goes up against Laura Bonnier this time.
11:39I think at Asahi, he will have had that.
11:50Just picking up the foul there as Botswana looked depressed high again.
11:56Just a clip from behind.
11:59It all comes out of the tackle.
12:01Well, he always seems to be a Botswana player nearby.
12:09Nothing much to worry about with that cross into the box, Asahi.
12:13Bulgari now this time on the right-hand side.
12:15Jinxing on the left.
12:16Sets it up on the edge of the area.
12:18And it's being blasted just wide of the upright by Björn Hanga.
12:32It really opened up there just for the moment.
12:35Good play from Matiaba, the substitute.
12:38Getting the ball to Bergara.
12:39He cut inside.
12:41Got his head up.
12:43Fed it to a teammate.
12:45And I think from this angle, we'll see just how wide that went.
12:48Or did not go.
12:50But always seem to be finding players who are moving well.
12:56And Laura Bonnier goes for the spectacular overhead.
12:59The first touch, not the best from the 30-year-old.
13:03The great imagination to try and somehow twist his body into a position where he can get a shot out
13:10of.
13:10That is a lovely ball over the top.
13:12Great run, too.
13:12That first touch, not what he was hoping for.
13:18And that is it.
13:19Surely going to be a yellow card.
13:22And a completely unnecessary one as well.
13:25Couldn't execute it.
13:30It didn't really seem to be a real counter-attack on there.
13:33You can imagine it if you look up the pitch and your teammates were all in the wrong place.
13:38But I really don't think that was the case here.
13:41Full-back running out from his own penalty box.
13:47To head.
13:48Again, the beating Libya in the previous game.
13:50Now Voulou did well to get to the ball.
13:53Couldn't quite change direction here.
13:54Backport with the cross.
13:56And it nearly deflects off the keeper through his own legs and over the line.
14:00And Foucault eventually, gratefully, just collapsing on the ball.
14:05And Voulou here running hard, keeping the ball in play.
14:09Didn't quite wrap his foot around it enough.
14:11Foucault then continuing forwards.
14:14And the first touch off the keeper's hand goes back between his own legs.
14:18Walked and right-footed.
14:21Foucault again lays it off inside.
14:23Thinks about making the run.
14:24That's a good ball in.
14:25The keeper comes off his line and nearly beaten.
14:28By the touch from Bagerik.
14:30Didn't quite get as much of the ball as he wanted there.
14:33The 18-year-old.
14:35As Foucault stays on the ground.
14:44Down.
14:46Down.
14:50Who's up with a Beaubon?
14:54Didn't even really take a run up there.
14:56There's a foot in there, maybe.
15:07Dingus Omede making his first touch since coming on
15:11and that was, I think he's a bit lucky not to get booked there
15:13but they've both got their foot up high
15:16that's the thing that always
15:19that's inside onto his left foot
15:20chips the ball in, the keeper comes through
15:22I don't think he got there
15:25no handball on the edge of the area
15:27eventually scramble clear
15:30oh no
15:32or a bonier clattered from behind
15:39which is Torre
15:40I think not agreeing with the yellow car
15:43but I mean he went straight through the back of him there
15:45in the air
15:50not sure if it was actually contact with the head or not
15:55that's it
16:15back across goal headed away by Koppelak
16:19they still can't clear their lines though
16:22and well I think that was an attempted shot but
16:27last chance saloon surely
16:29just five yellow shirts in the area though
16:31and the header
16:32balloon straight up in the air
16:34the ball cleared
16:40and the referee does indeed bring the whistle to his lips
16:44a little bit of frustration perhaps
16:47for Uganda
16:48failing to take all three points at home here to Botswana
16:51having beaten them home and away in World Cup qualifying
16:55final whistle here on the Gana Botswana
16:57to your point just had a 1-1 draw
16:58it is up like a couple places qualified and counter
17:01half-ball battle between two sides
17:02that came into this match undefeated
17:04and that's exactly how they live the pitch night
17:06broken
