Pirates Hold Edge Over Sharks in Rugby League Ahead of Second Leg

Black Pirates RFC stands poised to advance in the rugby league after a hard-fought 6-0 victory over Kampala Sharks RFC in the first leg of their encounter. This slim margin, however, means the tie is far from decided as both teams prepare for the crucial second leg.

The Pirates demonstrated a solid defense to keep the Sharks scoreless, a testament to their disciplined gameplay. While the scoreline suggests a close match, the Pirates will be looking to build on this momentum and extend their lead.
