Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span>Gorilla FC central midfielder Simeon Iradukunda is ambitious he can excel on his international duty with Rwanda.<\/p>\n Iradukunda first made the provisional list for the game with Benin in Cotonou on March 22 but failed to make the final squad for the trip.<\/p>\n He is now part of the 25-man squad that Amavubi caretaker head coach Gerard Buschier summoned for Senegal clash in the final AFCON qualifier that will take place at Huye Sports Stadium on September 9.<\/p>\n Commenting on what it felt like getting a national team callup, Iradukunda, who has been in fine form with Gorilla so far this season, told Times Sport that, \u201cthis is my second call up in Amavubi but I felt incredibly excited and honored when I received my first Amavubi call-up.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cIt was a dream come true and I couldn’t believe that I was going to represent my country on the international stage. The sense of pride and responsibility was overwhelming, and I was eager to give my absolute best for the team and the fans.”<\/p>\n “When I got my second invite which is for the upcoming game with Senegal, it was an even more profound experience. It meant that my first call-up was not a fluke. The second call-up validated my hard work, dedication, and consistent performance, filling me with confidence and motivation to continue striving for excellence in every match.\u201d<\/p>\n The player is pushing to make it in the final squad and remains positive a debut appearance against Senegal would simply define how hard he had been working for it. He wants to proved that he deservedly earned the call up.<\/p>\n “For my second Amavubi call-up, after not making the cut the first time, my expectations are filled with determination. I’m eager to prove my worth and contribute to the team’s success against Senegal. It’s a chance to showcase my growth, dedication, and commitment to earning my place in the squad.”<\/p>\n Iradukunda has featured twice for Gorilla FC this season. He was unplayable against Rayon Sports as he put up a man of the match performance as both teams played out a goalless draw in the Primus National League.<\/p>\n “The league has been quite interesting for me after three games. Unfortunately, I couldn’t play in the first match, but in the subsequent two games, we managed to maintain parity in goals with our opponents, avoiding any losses. It’s been a competitive start, and we’re optimistic about our future performances,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n For More News And Analysis About Rwanda<\/a> Follow Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Edmund Okai Gyimah Africa-Press – Rwanda.
