RWANDA’s trio of Hudu Munyemana, Félicien Kabanda and Eric Ruhumuriza have been selected to officiate in next Saturday’s Orange Champions league match between US Doula from Cameroon and Algeria’s ES Setif.

This comes after Zanaco coach’s good comments about Munyemana during the Zambian club’s Champions league clash with Uganda Revenue Authority (URA).

"I think we lost fairly. We cannot complain about the refereeing because the Rwandan referee was on top of issues throughout the match,” the Zanaco tactician Wedson Nyirenda told Cafonline.com at the time.

Meanwhile, the trio of Issa Kagabo, Felicien Kabanda and Theogne Ndagijimana are also set to handle the Orange Confederation Cup tie between Sudanese club El-Amal and Costa dol Sol of Mozambique.

El-Amal ejected Atraco from the competition on penalties.
However, Rwanda’s most celebrated referee Célestin Ntagungira a.k.a Abegga is set to spend sometime away from the pitch after getting injured during a Caf fitness test in Switzerland last week.
