Both teams went in today’s game when tied 2-2 on aggregate after the first leg played at the St Mary’s Stadium, Kitende on March 4, 2022.

Uganda’s Shakira Nyinagahirwa opened the deadlock with her fantastic score at the 33rd minute, a goal that Ethiopia later equalized to level matters until the final whistle.
