It was Ssali's first goal in the Uganda Premier League and they were playing against Soltilo Bright Stars FC which they beat 1-0 on Saturday, October 21 at the Muteesa II Stadium, Wankulukuku.

Taking to X, Comedian, media personality and events emcee Collins Bareija Emeka said: "I’ll give it to Bebe Cool for pushing his son Alpha. He’ll go places."

Sheilah Gashumba quoted his post: "I hope @BebeCoolUG documents alpha’s journey like how Beckham’s father did. I have a big feeling Alpha is going to go far with his football career and maybe a documentary can inspire other young boys who want to be footballers when the time is right."

Emeka responded to Gashumba's tweet: "Sheilah. Alpha is going to go big. Bebe Cool has been documenting since Alphs was young."

On his X, Ykee Benda posted: "I pray this kid gets a chance in Europe man."

With barely a sweat broken in the second minute, Ssali controlled a loose clearance in the box before thumping hard and high into the roof of the net.

The power on the ball had Bright Stars' goalkeeper Emmanuel Derrick Were well beaten as he fell on the deck rather than save.

Ssali then ran to the corner flag excitedly, just as were the Express fans beside the pitch.

Bebe Cool, who has stood by his (Alpha) career since his toddler age, fist-pumped and instantly took to his socials to express his excitement.
