“Mamobi have been pardoned but they won’t have a walkover to the Round of 16,” says a statement from the organizers.
“Instead, they will face one of the losers of the First Round (Salaga) in a special play off early morning. The winner will face New Town in the Round of 16.”
The Sheikh Sharubutu Ramadan Cup is in it’s 8th edition, growing bigger and better.
