This was announced by Muhire Kevin after the match of the Third Day of the Rwanda First Division Championship, which took place at the Amahoro Stadium on Saturday, December 7, 2024.
In an interview with the media, Muhire Kevin said that the Captain of APR FC, Niyomugabo Claude told him that he should avoid this game, because they can break him and he is needed in the National Team.
He said, “They gave him a message to come and break me so that I can get out, but it didn't work. Taddeo Lwanga is a player of my friend but when you are on the pitch you have to compete. Claude approached me and said, 'be careful, we need you in CHAN so they don't break you'."
In this game that ended with both teams tied 0-0, at the 64th minute Taddeo Lwanga was given a yellow card for a foul on Muhire Kevin.
As expected, Muhire was chosen as Rayon Sports' best player in the game, and received a prize of 500,000 Frw.
This match between the major teams here in Rwanda, played on December 7, 2024, was scheduled to be held on September 14, 2024, and ended up being canceled because APR FC was playing in the CAF Champions League.
