Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>Rwandan midfielder scored from the spot to help his side Al Masry grab first three points of the CAF Confederation Cup group stage with a 2-1 home win over Kaizer Chiefs of South Africa at New Suez Stadium on Sunday, November 23.<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old, joined the Egyptian side from Stade Tunisien in August, started in the midfield and his impact proved evident when he put the home team ahead through a penalty in the 56th minute.<\/p>\n

The game has become very physical, with numerous fouls already, and the visitors conceded a penalty after fouling Al Masry player in the penalty box.<\/p>\n

Kaizer Chiefs, however, leveled the scores in the 66th minute after Dillon Solomons fired home a shot inside the box to make it 1-1.<\/p>\n

The visitors were hoping to return to Johannesburg with a point after centre back Mohamed Hashem had the final say on the match when he scored the winning goal in the 87th minute, capitalizing on a horror piece of defending from Chiefs defender Inacio Miguel.<\/p>\n

The match winner sparked mad scenes inside the stadium as Mugisha and his teammates got off to a bright start to the CAF Confederation Cup group stage.<\/p>\n

Mugisha has been in fine form for Al Masry as he has been a regular starter under head coach Nabil Kouki.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile Fiacre Ntwari missed Kaizer Chiefs\u2019 trip to Egypt as he continues his recovery from a should injury.<\/p>\n

Al Masry and Kaizer Chiefs are in Group D alongside Zamalek of Egypt and Zambian powerhouse Zesco United.<\/p>\n
