The Eastern Giants produced an impressive performance to defeat Onduparaka FC 2-0 in their Uganda Premier League clash at Green Light Stadium on Saturday evening.
Martin Aprem was the king of the show in front of goal with a brace. The forward opened the scoring after seventeen minutes and doubled his tally a quarter hour after the restart with a lovely sole effort.
