Okoko said the win against the unbeaten league leaders is a huge confidence booster for his side ahead of the league return when they host Sunrise FC on Sunday.

In another friendly game, Emmanuel Ruremesha’s Gicumbi FC defeated second division side Interforce FC 1-0 courtesy of Dominique Nshimiyimana’s lone goal.

The Azam Rwanda Premier League is currently on a two-week break due to the ongoing national team training camp in Morocco, but it will resume this weekend.
