AFC Leopards heaps praises on the John Baraza-led Division One outfit.
AFC Leopards head coach Patrick Aussems has heaped praise on Equity FC after the Division One side forced the FKF Cup semi final game between the two sides to post-match penalties.
Ingwe had to labor before beating the John Baraza coached side 6-5 in penalties. The match had ended in a barren draw in regulation time.
The match was more of a balanced affair and in terms of chances, the minnows had the best including a sitter that was missed by Sande Katumba in the 75th minute.
