Fitina and Yunusu Omborenga, two key players from the Amavubi squad, have had to leave the team camp due to the unfortunate passing of their father.
The brothers participated in training with their teammates on Monday morning but received the heartbreaking news later that evening.
Their departure leaves the Rwandan team in a challenging position, especially as they prepare for a crucial match.
The experienced skills of the Omborenga brothers will be markedly missed in the lineup, potentially giving the Super Eagles an advantage.
While this situation deeply affects the family, attention now turns to its implications on the upcoming game.
Head coach Adel Amrouche now has 26 players at his disposal. Itis however uncertain whether the two players will return to the team before Friday’s 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifier against the Super Eagles of Nigeria.
With the clash approaching, “The Wasps” faces the dual challenge of managing their grief and adjusting their strategy in the absence of these pivotal defenders. Meanwhile, the Super Eagles will likely seize this chance to sharpen their tactics in light of the circumstances.
