Rwanda\u2019s national football team, Amavubi, have completed their final training session in Bamako, Mali, as they put the finishing touches on their preparations for Friday\u2019s crucial 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) qualifying encounter against the hosts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Rwandan delegation travelled to Mali earlier this week aboard a chartered flight ahead of their third Group-stage match in the AFCON 2027 qualification campaign.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Head coach Adel Amrouche and his technical team have been working with the players to ensure they are physically and tactically prepared for the difficult challenge awaiting them in Bamako.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During the final training session, the players focused on sharpening their match fitness, tactical organisation and teamwork as they prepare to face a strong Malian side on their home ground.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amavubi will be hoping to produce a positive performance and collect important points away from home as they continue their fight for a place at the 2027 AFCON finals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The encounter is expected to be a competitive one, with Mali enjoying the advantage of playing in front of their home supporters. However, Rwanda will be determined to demonstrate their quality and challenge the hosts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The coaching staff will also be counting on the experience and commitment of the selected players to execute the team\u2019s game plan and take advantage of any opportunities that may arise during the match.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The match between Mali and Rwanda will take place on Friday, November 13, 2026, at Stade du 26 Mars in Bamako, with kick-off scheduled for 21:00 Rwanda time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Amavubi supporters will be hoping to see their team secure a valuable result in Mali as Rwanda continues its journey towards qualification for the 2027 Africa Cup of Nations, which will be hosted by Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
