James Bogere makes senior debut at AGF Aarhus
Uganda’s teenage striker James Bogere made his first appearance for the senior team at AGF Aarhus on Friday as they faced Nordsjælland in a game that ended 1-1.
The forward who has largely featured for the U19 team has recently won the trust of coach Jakob Poulsen to be included on the senior team.
He was an unused substitute in the team’s 2-1 win away to Viborg on Monday but four days later, Bogere was handed his senior debut, coming on as a substitute.
The El Cambio graduate came on in the 83rd minute, replacing Tobias Bech as Aarhus were searching for an equalizer. Indeed the goal arrived a minute later with defender Frederik Tingager heading home.
Bogere made rapid progress last year,playing at the FIFA U17 World Cup with Uganda before being included in Uganda Cranes squad that featured at AFCON in Morocco.
Alongside Hamuza Ssengooba, they sealed a move to Denmark early this year and the duo has heavily impressed with the U19 team.
Aarhus currently leads the table in the Danish Superliga on 50 points from 22 games, four ahead of Midtjylland.
At the this point, the League will head into the playoff stage where the top six face off in a home and away format to fight for the title while the bottom six will go through the same process to determine relegation.
