Rucogoza,maintained that Rwanda had completed the tougher part of the assignment when they avoided first leg loss by holding Taifa Stars to a one all draw in Mwanza last weekend.

“Our target is to beat them. We are doing all we can to win but we know the game will even be more difficult than the first leg in Tanzania. Nonetheless, we are not under any pressure as we are going to play at home in-front of our fans and families.”
