Tetteh told Times Sport yesterday, “We need to redeem our image by getting a win against Burundi. Burundi will come with a lot of confidence, but Rwandans should also come and support their team such that we could win the game.” A 24 man-team, which was summoned a week ago joined the camp yesterday minus Patrick Mutesa Mafisango (Azam) who is expected to report to camp this afternoon according to Tetteh. France based Elias Uzamukunda, who plays for second division outfit AS Cannes will join camp on March 20, six days before the Burundi clash.
