Rayon sports fans as Usual

Even if the tittle has already gone according the games remaining and the gap between them and the table leaders, Rayon Sports fans have been consoled with team featuring among the top three after securing 1-o win against AS Kigali a.k.a the Citizens, Saturday April, 23.

At the start, one could already suggest that something could work for the Blues.
