El serbio Sredojevic nuevo seleccionador de Rwanda
El serbio Milutin Sredojevic es oficialmente el nuevo seleccionador de Rwanda, sustituyendo en el cargo al ghanés Sellas Tetteh, cesado en el cargo por la Federación hace tres semanas. Tetteh había sido muy criticado por los sistemas de juego empleados durante los partidios de clasificación para la CAN 2012. En su grupo sólo pudo ganar Rwanda dos de los seis partidos disputados.

Rwanda: Tetteh rules out professionals for Benin game
Rwanda’s tactician Sellas Tetteh has said he might not use professionals for the must-win Saturday 2012 Africa Cup of Nations game against Benin in Kigali.
The Ghanaian born coach said after his team’s 2-0 win over local side Kiyovu on Wednesday that the local players had actually showed that they can handle the pressure and bring the results.
After last build-up game, the Ghanaian said that the team’s performance proved that they would prevail without the foreign-based players.
“Today, we saw a completely different side from the one that played Rayon last week. The defence was rock solid and we created plenty of chances upfront. This is a team on the up and I expect a good show on Saturday,” Tetteh said.
Commenting on the professionals, he said, “We had Boubakary Saddou in mind but he is injured while Elias Uzamukunda would only arrive on the eve (Friday) of the game - which is more of a gamble.”
Rwanda, who suffered a 3-0 defeat in their opening 2012 Africa Nations Cup qualifier against Ivory Coast must beat Benin at the Amahoro Stadium on Saturday if they hope to get their qualifying campaign back on track.
In the build-up game, Kipson Atuhaire scored the opening goal on the 15th minute, while substitute Jean Claude Iranzi netted the second later after the interval.
The Squirrels of Benin’s arrived in Kigali on Wednesday ready for the Saturday battle. The West Africans were surprisingly held to a 1-all draw by Burundi in their opening qualifier. Burundi will host Ivory Coast on Saturday in the other group game.

Pressure mounts on Rwanda´s Amavubi
After calling only two professional players last week followed by a two all draw with a local side, pressure is brewing for Rwanda’s national side Amavubi and their coach Sellas Tetteh before the 2012 Orange CAF African Cup of Nations qualifiers kick-off. Amavubi who face Elephants of Cote d’Ivoire in their first group game drew with Police, who exposed a lot of defensive issues and team cohesion problems for Tetteh.
Center back Ismail Nshutinamagara opened the scoring when he put the ball in his own net. Left back Donatien Tuyisenge then compounded Amavubi’s woes with a clumsy challenge on Clementine Mukunzi inside the penalty box. Hamis Kitagenda made no mistake as he sent Amavubi goalkeeper Jean Luc Ndayishimiye “ Bakame” the wrong way.
Tetteh’s consolation was that the team managed to hit the back of the net after a long barren run. Bienfait Kabanda scored the opener with a powerful header while Albert Nyumbayire equalised five minutes from time after pouncing on a cross from Jean Claude Iranzi.
“I’m sure you have all heard about the story of David and Goliath. Of course we (Rwanda) are underdogs but strange things happen in football. “What is important is to go into the game well prepared, focused and confident. It’s important also to get as much support from our fans as we can. The first game of any qualifying campaign is always tricky but we are set to play our hearts out,” said Tetteh.
