Abouba Sibomana who plays for Gor Mahia in the Kenyan Premier League will be making his debut for Rwanda senior team against the “Mambas” of Mozambique in the AFCON 2017 match away this evening.

The left full back who loves to attack from the left wing has had a brilliant season for the Kenyan giants with several assists to his name by the mid season break.

His stand out display caught the eyes of “Amavubi” Coach Jonathan McKinstry who rewarded him with a call up to the national team and has maintained the same faith in him naming him in his final eleven after yesterday’s final training session.

Jean Baptiste Mugiraneza who is also rumored to be on his way to Gor Mahia from APR FC of Rwanda has also made the cut.

The Team

Rwanda XI: Eric Ndayishimiye, Emery Bayisenge, Faustin Usengimana,Michel Rusheshangoga,Abouba Sibiomana, Jean Baptiste Mugiraneza,Yannick Mukunzi, Jean Claude Iranzi, Haruna Niyonzima, Jacques Tuyisenge na Ernest Sugira.

The match kicks off at 1500HRS EAT and will be aired LIVE on Supersport 3 and Maximo
