Uganda head coach Johnathan McKinstry has revealed he was amazed by Ben Ocen’s red card against Cameroon during a pre-African Nations Championship tie on Friday at the Stade Ahmadou Ahidjo.
Uganda were reduced to 10 men when Ocen was shown a straight red card for a rough challenge on Alfred Meyong after 12 minutes. A minute later, the Indomitable Lions took the lead when Banga Bindjelme headed into the net from a cross delivered by Felix Oukine.
Uganda fought back and with 20 minutes left to play, Milton Karisa scored after a build-up that involved Shafiq Kagimu and Joachim Ojera. The hosts were also reduced to 10 men when Basile Yamkam was red-carded in the 90th minute with the score tied at 1-1.
