The Confederation of African Football (Caf) has cleared Rwanda Football Federation (Ferwafa) to host Amavubi’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifying matches at Huye Stadium.

The Southern Province-based stadium was banned from hosting Rwanda’s previous qualifier against Benin on March 29 because the host town, Huye, did not have a five-star hotel.

“We are happy to inform Rwandans that Huye Stadium is approved to host matches for the ticket to play in Afcon, as Caf informed Ferwafa,” a Twitter statement by Rwanda FA reads in part.

Rwanda will now host Mozambique at Huye Stadium on June 18. They are currently sitting bottom of Group L with two points from four matches and their final group fixture will see them travel to face Senegal.
