Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>Rayon Sports will play against Ugandan giants URA FC in a friendly game on Friday, September 2 after the cancellation of their friendly against Kenyan side, Police FC which was supposed to be played last week on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The match was called off due to sanctions imposed by the Football Association of Kenya.<\/p>\n

In February, FIFA banned the Kenya Football Association from participating in international matches due to government interference in the football administration of the country.<\/p>\n

This has resulted in local teams not being allowed to play in international matches, whether competitive or friendly.<\/p>\n

Rayon Sports spokesperson, Jean Paul Nkurunziza, confirmed to the Times Sports, that the club has already confirmed their next friendly game against Uganda Revenue Authority.<\/p>\n

“It’s true, we’ve an international friendly game scheduled on Friday against URA at Kigali stadium in Nyamirambo,” Nkurunziza said.<\/p>\n

“The fans who bought tickets for the Police game will be allowed to use them in our next match against URA,” Nkurunziza added.<\/p>\n

Times Sports understands that the URA team will arrive at Kigali International Airport, on Tuesday, 30th August.<\/p>\n
