ATRACO head coach Sam Timbe insists that it is too early to make any notion about an unprecedented treble.

Monday’s 2-1 win over Rayon Sport in the MTN Peace Cup semi-final first leg ensured Timbe’s troops remained on course for a treble this season.

With the Cecafa/ Kagame Cup safely stowed in the locker, it is a case of one down, two to go for the imperious Taxi-men side.

However, Timbe remains adamant insisting that there is still a job to be done before dreaming of a treble.

"Certainly, the treble is within reach for Atraco but winning it is a totally different thing,” he said.

"The best was to confirm it is by winning our remaining fixtures in the national football league and the MTN Peace Cup,” the Ugandan tactician said.

Hamis Kitagenda scored a brace to put the 2009 Cecafa/Kagame Cup winners in a good position ahead of Sunday’s return leg.

The Ugandan international lashed onto a through pass from Atraco captain Jean Shyaka before netting his opener. Albert Nyumbayire equalised for the blues but Kitagenda scored Atraco’s winner ten minutes from time.
