Black Power started their Premier League campaign with a 1:0 victory over Ntugasaje on Friday evening. The match took place at their home ground on 2026-08-29 and delivered exactly what the opening round often produces — a narrow result that sets the tone rather than revealing everything.
By then the table was already taking shape. Black Power sit fifth after one game, three points on the board, while Ntugasaje occupy sixteenth place having lost their opener. There is unrest in the dressing room when you lose your first match, but this is only round one and the league is long.
Black Power's recent form before this season showed mixed results. They beat Express 3:1, lost to Villa 0:1 and Onduparaka 0:1 in May 2023. Then came a 3:2 win over Gaddafi and a 1:1 draw with URA. The old head settled them down against Ntugasaje — not flashy, just enough.
Ntugasaje ended a barren spell in reverse. One defeat from one game means they have nothing yet, and the pressure is immediate. They need to respond, not with grand statements, but with something in training that translates to the pitch.
The scoreline tells you the game was decided by a moment rather than sustained dominance. Three points for the hosts pushes them into contention early. Sixteen places separate these sides now, and that gap will either widen or shrink depending on what comes next.
