Reflecting on the game, Spittler said that Rwanda dominated possession and created numerous chances but lacked the finishing touch to convert them. “We played well, created plenty of chances, but I can’t score goals myself, claimed the German coach. “My job is to prepare the players, but on the field, they have to put the ball in the net.” Spittler acknowledged the ups and downs in football, noting that “a good team must know how to get results even on bad days.” With the defeat, Amavubi’s aspirations of returning to the AFCON tournament after a two-decade absence are now hanging by a thread, leaving fans hoping for a turnaround in the remaining qualifying match against the Super Eagles in Uyo on November 18
