APR FC 2-2 Rayon
Sport
In 15th minute of first half, APR FC edged out a determined Rayon
sport side at Amahoro Stadium on Saturday, with Bwalya Joseph
netting the first goal of the game.
Bwalya
started the game in fine fettle, crashing an early shot just wide
of Blues' post, and then just failing to put Abbas in on goal.
After ten minutes it was Bwalya again at the centre of things, creating
space for Kabange Twite after linking with Abbas. The Abbas's shot
found the side netting, but it showed we were already in the ascendancy.
The visitors' first opportunity came in the 20th minute, as Bokota
Labama and Drogba combined down the right hand side. The Blues international
(Bokota) crossed low into the six yard box, but Mampuya Lema, again
filling in at right back, was able to cover and clear.
APR were looking comfortable, and the more likely to score.
It very nearly worked, as from Blues corner, Mbuyu Twite was forced
to head off the line from Labama's goalbound header after Mike's
shot had been blocked.
In 15 minutes, Rayon sport pressure increased, Bokota scored first
goal for Blues after over-running Pawassa Joseph plus Ndada.
In 77th minute, Bokota Labama Mutabzi scored second goal for Blues
and made it thirteen for the season, taking him to the top of the
scoring charts.
In response, Mfutila replaced Bwalya with Lomami in a straight swap.
Moments later Kabongo came on for Kanou , with Janno moving to his
favoured central midfield role.
Abbas Lassou made his first contribution in the 78th minute, as
he twisted and turned before striking his shot straight at Rayon
sport's custodian import from Kenya.
In
79th minute, Rayon sport's defender Mike was red carded after a
foul play against Kabange Twite.
As full-time approached the APR FC pressure increased, Manfred scored
second goal for APR FC from a beautiful corner kick taken by Janno
in 84th minute of second half. APR
FC (4-4-2): Ndada , Lema , Pawassa , Ntaganda (C) , Mbuyu
