Nizeyimana Junior’s second half goal ended Rayon Sports’ hope of league title as relegated AS Muhanga beat the peace cup winners 1-0 in Muhanga on Thursday.

Rayon Sports who had three matches at hand before the clash, remain second on 57 points, 10 points shy off APR FC who have now been declared Champions for the third straight time, as the league climax on 17 July 2016.

The Rwandan army side have now won “Azam Rwanda Premier League” a record 16 times.
