The former SC Villa forward continued his goal-scoring form after he netted one of two goals during his side's 2-1 win over Gasogi United on the Rwanda Premier League opening day at the Pele Kigali stadium on Friday evening.

It's safe to say Rayon Sport is reaping the rewards of signing Ugandan forward Charles Bbaale.

The former SC Villa forward continued his goal-scoring form after he netted one of two goals during his side's 2-1 win over Gasogi United on the Rwanda Premier League opening day at the Pele Kigali stadium on Friday evening.

Bbaale opened the scoring after 11 minutes before Algerian Youssef Rharb doubled it six minutes later off a Joackim Ojera assist.

It was the forward's second goal in Rayon Sport colours, having scored in the Rwanda Super Cup as he guided his side to a 3-0 win over rivals APR FC.

'Gikundiro' conceded a penalty in the 90th minute but was able to see out the game and claim maximum points.

Goalkeeper Simon Tamale continues to wait for his debut, having missed out on Rayon Sport's second game and the Super Cup win against APR FC.

The seven-time Rwanda Premier League champions are expected to feature in the CAF Confederation Cup this season.
