The law and order enforcers reached the final after overcoming defending champions APR FC in the second leg of the semi-final round played on Wednesday afternoon at Kicukiro stadium.

After a first leg match which ended 1-1 last weekend, APR FC needed a goal over Police FC to sail through to the final but both sides managed a goalless draw, a feat which earned the Cops side an automatic qualification based on the away-goal rule.

APR FC had three of their best attempts from Michel Ndahinduka, Michel Rusheshangoga and Jean Baptiste Mugiraneza cleared by impressive Police goalie Emery Mvuyekure as the military side was left frustrated as they exited the tournament for the first time in their history.

Police who existed last year’s edition after losing 1-0 to APR FC will now face Rayon Sports that thrashed  Isonga FC 4-0 to book a place  in the final while APR FC will take on Isonga FC in the third match play-off, all to be staged at Amahoro stadium.

Prizes
winners will earn Rwf.4m on top of the trophy while the losing finalist will pocket Rwf.2m with the third team earning Rwf.1m.

Each member of the winning team will be given a one-month Azam TV bouquet courtesy of Ferwafa’s main partner, East Africa’s leading provider of pay TV services Azam TV.

All 25 members of the winning team will walk away with Azam TV full kit which includes a decoder, smart card, and satellite dish to one TV point and be able to access more than 140 channels from the French and English Bouquets.

The winner of the 2015 Peace Cup final will earn an automatic spot to represent Rwanda in next year’s edition of the CAF Orange Confederation Cup.
