His club and international teammate Ndahinduka broke a finger in APR’s win against Rayon Sports last Saturday.As a result, Amavubi coach Eric Nshimiyimana summoned APR right back Albert Ngabo to replace Rusheshangoga.

From Kampala, we will carry on with preparations until we head to Nairobi for the tournament,” Nshimiyimana told Time Sport on Thursday.This year’s Cecafa Senior Challenge Cup is set for November 27 through December 12 in Kenya.
