With the threat of relegation looming large, Onduparaka FC was forced to settle for a share of the spoils in a gritty end-to-end contest against Bunyaruguru FC in the FUFA Big League, which leaves them still in the relegation zone, with survival far from guaranteed.
The match came to life in the 20th minute when Ade Brian gave the hosts a deserved lead. Capitalizing on a team move, the striker slotted home calmly after a nice pass from Andama Sabir. For a brief moment, the fans dared to dream of a precious victory that could lift them out of danger.

However, Bunyaruguru FC—fighting for their own reasons—hit back strongly in the second half. The goal sparked a frantic period as both teams pushed forward, knowing how costly a defeat would be at this stage of the season.
The draw means Onduparaka FC have now gone three games without a victory, a run that has piled pressure on the coach and the team. With tough fixtures still to come against Soltilo Bright Stars FC (H) and Nebbi Central FC (A), every point from here on will feel like gold dust.
Fans will be hoping this battling performance signals the start of a late surge. For now, though, the relegation battle remains wide open, and Onduparaka FC must find a way to turn their resilience into results before it's too late.
