Rwanda’s U18 national team has booked their ticket to the last four of the 2023 CECAFA youth tournament following a 3-0 thrashing of Sudan on Friday, December 1.

Coach Jean-Baptiste Kayiranga's charges dominated the game from the blast of the whistle as the Sudanese could not match their firepower.

The junior Amavubi, despite being the better side, had to wait until the 36th minute to score through a Didier Ndayishimiye strike. They continued to dictate the pace of the game but could not increase the tally.

The second half saw Rwanda piling more pressure on Sudan as they sought the second goal.

Skipper Kennedy Hoziana made it 2-0 with a well-taken penalty in the 53rd minute before Jean-Paul Irakoze put the icing on the cake with the third goal in the 84th minute.
