Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>AS Kigali Coach Andre Casa Mbungo has paid tribute to his players after they eliminated Police 3-2 goal aggregate to reach the final of the 2022 Peace Cup.<\/p>\n

Casa will be looking to guide AS Kigali to the fourth Peace Cup trophy which will be his third as coach after winning it with AS Kigali in 2013 and in 2015 with Police.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am very happy to reach the final with AS Kigali. This is historic for the club and for me as coach,\u201d Mbungo said.<\/p>\n

Police\u2019s Antoine Dominique Ndayishimiye scored twice while Lawal Aboubakar and Shabani Hussein scored for AS Kigali.<\/p>\n

The former Police coach acknowledged that much as he might be credited for reaching the final, AS Kigali\u2019s success was built around team effort where everyone connected to the club, from players and coaching staff to the club management played a vital role.<\/p>\n

\u201cI can only say \u2018thank you\u2019 to my players; they showed the highest level of never-die spirit, maturity and consistency.\u201d He noted<\/p>\n

AS Kigali who played in the CAF Confederations Cup last year will be hoping to feature in the competition once again by winning the final of the Peace Cup.<\/p>\n
