His tackles, passes and long drives were spot on.<\/p>\n<p>He capped a brilliant evening with a goal which won the Peace Cup trophy for AS Kigali. If Kalisa can maintain his form, he will definitely be a player his club can rely on in the CAF Confederation Cup.<\/p>\n<p><b>Anicet Ishimwe is more effective upfront<\/b><\/p>\n<p>He is the most skilful player in the APR FC set up and always draws fouls from opposing players.
