Africa-Press – Rwanda. <\/strong><\/span> National football team Amavubi play their second friendly match against Guinea on Thursday afternoon at Amahoro Stadium, in Kigali, and the hosts will be looking to complete a perfect double.<\/p>\n

Rwanda beat Guinea 3-0 in the first encounter on Monday, with goals from skipper Muhadjiri Hakizimana, Dany Usengimana and Fred Muhoozi.<\/p>\n

Head coach Vincent Mashami says his youthful Amavubi side will give it their best for \u2018a good result\u2019 but, most importantly, he will use the match to give playing opportunity to many players.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt will give us a picture for our CHAN team,\u201d he said. The African Nations Championship (CHAN) is a continental showpiece designed for only players in their domestic leagues.<\/p>\n

\u201cAmavubi squad (against Guinea) are largely domestic young players and six of our starting eleven in the first match had not played many matches for the national team. They held their own against a very experienced team featuring star players,\u201d Mashami added.<\/p>\n

After Thursday\u2019s game, Guinea will fly to Cameroon the following day for the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) finals.<\/p>\n

The Syli Nationale begin their AFCON title quest against Malawi on January 10.<\/p>\n
